NICK DOUGLAS —
Yahoo will shut down its popular photo sharing service in favor of the smaller but growing (and more snazzy)
Flickr, which it bought in 2005,
says TechCrunch. (The cool news: Yahoo will help users export their photos not just into Flickr, but into Photobucket, Shutterfly, Snapfish, or Kodak Gallery.) As blogger
Thomas Hawk pointed out, Valleywag reported this as "
unannounced fact" in February, but Flickr founder
Stewart Butterfield said not to "put a lot of stock" in our reporting. You nearly got us there, Stewart!
