Yahoo-owned Flickr on Friday rolled out a revamped mobile Web site that now allows users to play Flickr videos on their phones. PCMag reports.

The offering has been available in beta to select iPhone users since October and was opened to all iPhone and iPod Touch users on Friday. Support for additional handsets with streaming capabilities will be added in the coming weeks, Flickr said.quotesmarksleft.jpg
