Can anyone explain Flickr in detail?
Flickr was developed by Ludicorp, a Vancouver, Canada-based company founded in 2002. Ludicorp launched Flickr in February 2004. The service emerged out of tools originally created for Ludicorp's Game Neverending, a web-based massively multiplayer online game. Flickr proved a more feasible project and ultimately Game Neverending was shelved.





Early incarnations of Flickr focused on a multiuser chat room with real-time photo exchange capabilities called FlickrLive for sharing photos; the successive evolutions focused more on the uploading and filing backend for individual users and the chat room was buried in the site map. It was eventually dropped as Flickr's back end systems evolved away from the Game Neverending's codebase.





In March 2005, Yahoo! Inc. acquired Ludicorp and Flickr. During the week of June 28 all content was migrated from servers in Canada to servers in the United States, resulting in all data being subject to United States federal law. [1].





On May 16, 2006 Flickr updated its services from Beta to "Gamma" along with a design and structural overhaul.
Reply:I use flickr and it's user friendly, store your photos with public or private viewing. Copy and paste on other sites, can't say if it's any better than other photo storage sites but I like it
Reply:Flickr is a great site if you like looking at photos. You can click on photos that have been put on in the last 7 days and just scroll through them. Alot of them are so good, they need no explanation because they tell a story. You can also look at photos from a particular place like, New York, or 9/11.

It should be on your browser under the big RED Y!
