This article on arstechnica discusses a backlash that Flickr is facing from its original members. Early users of Flickr are being forced to abandon their Flickr account names and switch over to Yahoo account names. I totally understand why this is annoying. Early Flickr users have cooler names and have much higher credibility on the site than some random yahoo user. Give them some sort of “founder badge” so they can continue to strut their stuff on the site.

It is Friday evening so I can’t think of anything more to say. But it is an interesting and not very long article.
