Finally!
Aside from flickr’s interesting re-design for going ‘gamma’, they’ve finally provided a page to just find recent comments made on any of your photos instead of having to search through all photos with comments and looking for ones that have more than they used to.
I have the feeling this feature may have already existed hidden away somewhere in the old ‘beta’ flickr (if it didn’t then my previous astonishment at the lack of such an obvious feature continues), but it at least now pops out at me. It seems like a small feature, but the number of times I’ve stumbled across comments on my pictures that are up to a month old before I find them is many and I like to think that if someone takes time to comment on one of my photos I’ll get back to them in a reasonable time, so this feature is very welcome (seems there’s a RSS feed for it now too).

[…] We’ve all seen these kinds of little irritations in either our own apps or others’ (e.g. flickr’s previous lack of a page to just find the newest comments on your posts) and Matt’s post provides a great analogy and reminder to get them sorted and improve user experience. […]

[…] After flickr finally adding pages to see comment activity on your photos from one place as part of their swish ‘gamma’ re-design, all was looking good. […]
