QuickLinks For 2007-08-03, II
- Three years later, Flickr gets around to video:
Flickr cofounders Caterina Fake and Stewart Butterfield are finally introducing video to the photo-sharing site they sold to Yahoo in 2005. [...]
Butterfield hinted last May that his photo sharing site would host moving pictures "soon". For some value of "soon". The reason for the latest delay: it appears that Flickr's video efforts have been tied up by Yahoo's slow-moving response to Google´s popular YouTube video site. At long last, Yahoo´s tying together its video properties, and Flickr´s part of the grand plan.
