Interesting article I read some time ago.

Two years ago, I let my Flickr Pro account expire after four years active. It felt dead even back then.

for artsy/documentary photos with no people or pets in them, i still get more feedback on flickr than facebook. i've put a bit of effort into gathering flickr acquaintances over the years though, and few of my real acquaintances are into obscure public art or whatever strange thing i am interested in this week.

While I agree on the postive feedback issue, my concern is the terms of service that are spelled out by facebook - http://www.facebook.com/legal...

For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, like photos and videos (IP content), you specifically give us the following permission, subject to your privacy and application settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with Facebook (IP License). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been shared with others, and they have not deleted it.

@joshuac makes the key point that had me bring down my FB albums, delete them before deleting my account. Flickr is better when IP matters, like photos taken during client user research.

I don't see how Facebook replaces Flickr's system of tags, groups and sets, which I've found very useful. That's in addition to not wanting to give Facebook rights over my pictures.

I've never liked busy bars.

@elzadra Pretty much my answer on this one.

Besides, I steer clear of Facebook as much as I can. I treat it as that one friend that says he just contracted Ebola, and is just about to sneeze....

I use the facebook gateway to Flickr [telling people I have new set and linking to it] and that has been working for me. That said, yeah, it's smaller and clubby on facebook but that is sort of okay with me. Depends what you're after i think. This year I vowed to say "thank you" to everyone who said "Happy birthday" using the facebook Happy Birthday Machine and it took the better part of a day.

@jessamyn You have a lot of friends that wanted to wish you happy birthday. That's a good problem to have!

Not complaining! Just that there are more measures of what is good for you or for the world than "action"

@stavrosthewonderchicken yup.

Rockin the old school prefontaines, I see you!

Another bike nerd on mlkshk. Alright!

did you replace your feet with a bottom bracket screw?

I'm completely jealous.

That doesn't look professional at all!

Hold on - how do you get rims painted like that...

Very sexy ride!

And if we put a bunch of fox heads on sticks, it gets really frightening!

Let's wrongly use a bar chart to display trend data! exaggerate the crap out of the scale too.

Do people really fall for that? Really? Tell me they don't. I know that they do, but tell me they don't so I can sleep at night.

Makes you wonder if these folks scanned Tufte's chapters on bad & misleading display for ideas. Bastards.

Wow. And I don't understand what you are talking about so maybe they do.

Tax rate certainly should be much higher I do believe if that is what we are getting on about.

This wee thread is funnier than the original screenshot is sad and infuriating.

it seems a lot harder to find the movie you want to see than it ought to be in this app. being the typical male i never went into the help section.

This is crap UX "helping" crap UX. "Showtimes" is better, but not by much.

This is one reason (of many) I wish companies would give up trying to address people by name in bulk mail. I know you don't know my name, big corporation - no reason for us to play this charade. A "Dear User," will work just fine for me.
