What is the difference between public and private groups?
Public groups are listed around the site and on the groups page, profiles, and photo pages if the photo is in a group pool. There are two types of public groups: anyone can join and invitation only. Group administrators can choose to show or hide the group photo pool and discussion topics at any time. Private groups are not listed anywhere on the Flickr site. You can join them only by invitation.
