I love Flickr

I started using internet only a few years back. My first internet experience was creating an email address on Yahoo! Mail. Those were the days before Gmail …. when Yahoo! used to be the star

… Now, things have changed and most of us use gmail and other google services … still ….  Flickr makes us stick to Yahoo!,  and we all love flickr.

I have started spending more time on flickr these days, with uploading, and editing pictures,  socializing, and making new friends etc …  and I started thinking if there was any other Yahoo! service that I still use … hmmm Yahoo Messenger at times, I guess .. other than that, Yahoo! is completely out of my online life.

I used to wonder why Google’s picasa web couldn’t make it big, I was not using flickr much those days … for me it was only a place where I can upload some images for blogs and link from. But when I started using flickr ( hmm, after buying a new digi cam ) … I realized how big, and strong the community is, at Flickr.

I have seen people for whom blogging is their passion, and not just a hobby. There is something similar in flickr users too. For many, it’s their hobby, but for many others, its their passion, its their way of expressing things, just like we blog. I’m a newbie at Flickr … but, I now feel that I have started understanding the spirit of flickr, and that makes me say …  I love flickr …

Flickr is one of the things thts on my ‘to do list’…one of my friends frm lj (http://www.flickr.com/photos/poombatta) motivated me to create flickr, but i still hvnt got a chance to start it, for some reason i always thought u need a REAL cam not just a digi cam to get good nature shots…but ur pics proves me wrong!!

I have never explored Flickr that much. WordPress, tumblr and twitter take up all the time.
