Flickr recently released some handy tools like Photo Session and an Android app for their photo service, but they're geared toward the Web and smartphone users. If you love taking photos that require uploading to your computer, chances are you don't want to spend hours uploading them individually to your Flickr account for sharing.

Begin by downloading and installing theGood.uploadr. This is an Adobe Air app, so if you don't have that installed, you will need to download and install that as well. On your first run, you'll be asked to allow permission for the app to access your Flickr account. Simply click on Authorize and follow the prompt in your browser to grant the app access.

After you click Upload the app will perform its magic, quickly uploading your images and tagging them with the information you entered. If you realize you made a mistake, you can interrupt the upload by clicking on Cancel Upload in the bottom left corner of the window. Note that this app cannot delete images from your account, so if some of the images made it online, you'll have to remove them manually from the Web interface.
