Given the number of systems Yahoo has it was not easy to be become an RP (e.g. messenger and other clients, IMAP/POP etc). That is why this launch is limited to Flickr but we do plan to make this work for across the network soon.<br><br>Thank you Allen for all your hard work on this.<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Naveen @ Yahoo!<br></div><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> SitG Admin
