I would like to be able to access my (and maybe my Flickr contacts) Flickr photos directly from the TiVo (i.e. without have to run through the FlickrCentral software on my compute) much in the same way Yahoo! Photos is currently set up. Perhaps this is a Yahoo! issue (i.e. since Yahoo! owns Flickr, if they integrated Flickr access through existing Yahoo! Photos access, presumably, I could just go through my existing Yahoo! Photos on my TiVo and get to Flickr); but perhaps TiVo could set up a Flickr client to reside on the TiVo just like Yahoo! Photos right now. I'm telling ya, lots of people would use this. Lots of people already use FlickrCentral (or whatever that TiVo/Flickr API is called), and it even won that contest some years back. Imagine how many more people would use it if you cut out the proverbial middleman (i.e. your PC) and just had the software residing directly on the TiVo. Since there's clearly already some sort of arrangement between TiVo and Yahoo!, this shouldn't be too terribly tough, I wouldn't think.
