Yahoo! Inc.’s Flickr online photo-sharing service is making its biggest improvements in two years with new tools to help more easily store, organize and search images, as the company looks to woo more users.
With the update, Flickr will automatically upload photos and videos from computers and mobile devices, reducing manual steps, Aditya Kashyap, product lead, said in an interview. The company also is making it simpler to share or edit images and will enable users to easily navigate by date -- or find photos based on categories such as landscapes and animals.
