In order to activate your faves in your FriendFeed just delete your current Flickr feed in FriendFeed and re-add your Flickr account.
FriendFeed is a much smarter way to view your friends/contacts photos on Flickr because it doesn't limit you to the last 1 or 5 photos from your friends/contacts. Instead it shows the last 7 photos that they uploaded with a little icon next to the thumbnails to let you know that there are even more if you want to click it and have all uploaded thumbnails show up.
I've long been frustrated when I miss photos from my friends who upload more than 5 photos at a time because they get buried on Flickr's most recent photos from your friends/contacts page.
It's going to be interesting watching FriendFeed import more and more of the functionality that I use Flickr for in much better ways than Flickr does. Already I've found that I rarely go to my contacts most recent photos on Flickr anymore and instead choose to browse these photos directly from FriendFeed.
FriendFeed has already pretty much replaced 100% of my Twitter usage. It will be interesting to see how much of my Flickr usage it ends up consuming as well.
If you are a contact of mine on Flickr please drop me a comment with your FriendFeed account so that I can continue to see your photographs there. If you haven't signed up for a FriendFeed account yet, go for it. It's super easy and allows you to share all of your Flickr photos along with your blog posts, Twitters, and other interesting stuff that you want to share.
If you'd like to add me as a Friend on FriendFeed Update: Bret Taylor responds via Twitter and says that you won't need to delete and re-add your Flickr account to get this functionality after noon today.
