Already knew that, but Flickr seems to have the least Hooveristic character
of the whole conglomeration.
From your side, maybe.
I get royally pissed off by the continual "Sign up" nagging pop-ups
if I'm foolish enough to follow a posted link to a picture on flickr.
It's not just flickr. It seems to be a common characteristic for *ALL* web
sites these days. Follow a posted link, get a nag screen from the site
wanting you to subscribe.
I can sort of understand it for a newspaper site or something like that -
they're in the business of selling information, and they'd kind of like
to be paid for it. But Flickr is in the business of selling hosting
for images, albums, etc. - their customer is, presumably, the photographer.
Trying to get a third party to pay for looking at their customer's images
seems to me to be acting against their customer's interests.
Yeah, but I get the same nagging from other "photo hosting" sites.
