You may recall my review of Flickr’s latest app for iPhone.
After using the app for a couple of weeks, I’m still relatively satisfied with it save for one major, annoying flaw.
It appears the app doesn’t handle IPTC keywords very well. The old Flickr app used to read the field and convert its values to tags. But now, those values fill a field called “machine tags” and don’t generate any normal tags at all.
For example, this result …

I’ve left a message in the Flickr for iPhone group but have yet to hear back from anyone about a fix. Here’s to hoping this gets solved soon!

Took Apple’s new iPad out for a spin Thursday, to a location where Bell’s LTE mobile coverage was more reliable than at my home.
As you can from the above screen shot, it’s doing very well, thank you very much. And that’s only with signal level fluctuating between two and three bars.
Signal maps below are courtesy of Bell’s website. Blue is current LTE coverage; brown is coverage coming soon.
