Flickr Still Rocks

Even though Flickr is now owned by Yahoo! it is being entirely non-proprietary about allowing users to make prints, posters, calendars, DVDs, stamps, etc. out of their Flickr-posted photos. This is really quite generous and forward thinking, and suggests to me that Yahoo! realizes it has a gem of a web site and that it had better not meddle. Also, it might even be a better business strategy: more of the Amazon Affiliates model than Shutterfly or Ofoto.
