Flickr Profile Query
I noticed, after entering my Flickr ID on my account, that no link to my Flickr photostream appeared on my profile. Not a huge deal, but I was curious - why ask for the information for a link, if none is going to be displayed?

Inappropriate?oh, right! well, that's there because we were planning on releasing a "flickr image" import feature for posting images into topics and replies, and getting flickr usernames was step 1 for that. sadly, it's fallen off the roadmap for business reasons, but i'm sure we'll get back to it soon enough.

Inappropriate?I take it that the same applies to the Twitter entry on the profile? When you guys do have time to work on this, may I offer a recommendation? Instead of just having a blank box for flickr and twitter, have the start of the url followed by a box for the applicable username.
As it is, the query is ambiguous. Do I enter
http://www.flickr.com/photos/joseph_d...
or
joseph_dunphy/
or my Flickr / Yahoo login. It's not altogether clear, and might lead to confusion. -
Inappropriate?W/r/t Twitter: The Twitter account name serves a different purpose. It allows you to share a Get Satisfaction topic via Twitter.
