Flickr Adds Video

Flickr adds video to your photostream. Looks like Pro account holders can now upload videos no longer than 90 seconds to their photostreams. It looks like for now you'll have to use the web interface to do the uploading, but I'm sure API support, and then modifications to their uploaders will be forthcoming. I've gotta say, the video player has the same charm as the sllideshows do, clean and easy to use.

Maybe it's just an east coast/west coast thing (I'm east coast), but I've often wondered about the name "Flickr." I originally thought the site was a video sharing site, and wasn't the least bit interested in it until I realized otherwise. Doesn't the term "flick" refer informally to a motion picture?
