How Yahoo Doomed Flickr
This is the story of a wonderful idea. Something that had never been done before, a moment of change that shaped the Internet we know today. This is the story of Flickr. And how Yahoo bought it and murdered it and screwed itself out of relevance along the way.
Remember Flickr? I vaguely remember this thing called Flickr, which was the big photo-sharing site just a few years ago. Mat Honan goes long on the story of how Yahoo bought Flickr and how Flickr became “an afterthought.”
