Silverlight and Monotouch with Flickr.Net

The Flickr.Net library has been getting a bit of love recently.

Monotouch

Firstly, it got mentioned on the dotnetrocks podcast a week or so ago, a talk with Chris Hardy about Monotouch.

Jing Project uses Flickr.Net

I’m please to say that the new version of the Jing Project, a tool for capturing video and screenshots of your desktop uses the Flickr.Net library to upload the files to Flickr (I’m assuming on the Windows only version).

As you can see from the screenshot on the right it works a dream :)
