I wonder if that system inspired Google to build Google Drive. And someone created a system to allow you to backup files from your computer onto your GMail. I remember also back when GMail first became available to people by invitation, and at the time the amount of storage you were given, while not as impressive by today’s standards, was pretty significant at the time. Still keep backups of my photos locally of course and I am ready to bail if they change it to look like Smugmug :-)
They had a pretty good sale on Black Friday, so I ended up signing up for a year. I have OneDrive for my camera uploads (habit carried over from Windows Phone) and other private uploads, but anything I want to share publicly will go on Flickr. Plus, the overall UI for browsing an album is simple.
I particularly like collections of albums and the maps of photos. That might account for the "63% of images lost" stat above.įinally, this fall I needed a photo-sharing site again and decided I still like Flickr with its shitty "new" UI better than most other sites. I wonder if they exposed only the newest 1000 public photos. I never checked to see how many were still publicly visible, though. However, in the 2 years since they announced that, all my 6000+ photos were still there. So I thought Flickr was effectively dead to me. I was never going to re-upload all my pictures if I decided to go Pro again in the future. So, I was really pissed off when they said they'd start deleting pictures instead of hiding them like the old Flickr.
