How Yahoo Botched Its Acquisition of Flickr

How Yahoo Botched Its Acquisition of Flickr:
Lengthy, detailed treatise by Mat Honan for Gizmodo:


There’s a difference between a missed opportunity and a complete
fuck-up. When Yahoo failed to capitalize on Flickr’s social
potential, that was a missed opportunity. But if you want to see
where it completely fucked up, where it just butchered Flickr with
dull knives and duller wit, turn on your phone and launch the
Flickr app. Oh, what’s that, you don’t have one? Exactly.


Flickr could have — should have — been to mobile photography what Instagram has become.
