Social networking sites don’t belong to the people that created them…

Yesterday I wrote that the move Yahoo! made to force merging Flickr’s identity system into Yahoo’s bummed me out, but a lot of people are really pissed about it. The move to limit the number of contacts is really idiotic, they are taking their most passionate users and telling them not to use Flickr too much. Crazy.
It’s much worse over on the Flickr Forum: bkusler: “seriously. this wasn’t rocket science. you guys just fucked this up.”
Thomas Hawk’s Digital Connection: There’s Some Mighty Pissed Off Flickr Members Right Now: Limiting your most active users from further social networking on a social networking site is the most idiotic thing I’ve seen in a long time. Flickr needs to reverse the asinine decisions made today to force people to merge their accounts with Yahoo and to place new limits on your contacts and tags.
