Flickr Groups Get A Makeover

Flickr has launched it's newly designed Group pages, bringing them up to speed with the dramatic changes they made in other parts of the site back in May. But is this enough to bring people flocking back to Flickr?

"The new Groups is easier to use, better showcases group photos and discussions" and is easier to navigate and more flexible for admins, says Flickr. And I don't doubt that anyone who's in Flickr and paying their annual fee will love these changes.

But what about people who've moved to Facebook to store their photos? It's hard to imagine them coming back for the Groups function.

So what is the best tool for creating a discussion around photos?
