Flickr Printing!!   After many many requests (a.k.a. bitching from users) Flickr has finally made some progress on the printing front. You can now order prints to be delivered by mail, or you can pick them up at the nearest Target. yup, partnering with Target.

They also rolled out a pilot program allowing businesses access to their APIs, starting with QOOP, Englaze and Zazzle. QOOP makes books and posters, Englaze makes DVDs and Zazzle lets you design your own US postage stamp. Interesting choice of partners to get started with, but if they truly mean to open it up then I'm confident we'll see a(nother) Flickr explosion.

Let's hope the folks at Picaboo hop on this! TechCrunch has a recent review which is spot on.
