Interesting news - the creators of flickr, international photo sharing site phenom, have passed the reins onto someone else because their jobs "sucked."
I can't imagine why... dealing with creative commons, lawsuits, use of images without model releases or permission (such as the Australian advertising company that used a Flickr photo for a national Virgin Mobile campaign)...
I have to admit, I've steered clear of Flickr; I'm very protective of my photographs and don't want to have to deal with the above. I love the community concept and am awed by how far reaching its popularity is. I'm interested to see what ideas the new general manager has in store for this site.
