s that I have a camera.
"After seeing what they paid for YouTube has not arisen it would have been better to wait to sell Flickr to Yahoo?
Of course (laughs), but they are two very different things. I love YouTube, you can see everything that you like on TV or things that you missed and everyone says. YouTube allows you to search TV, but has the problem that many of these contents are illegal, they are infringing intellectual property rights. Flickr is very different, it teaches small pieces of the life of the people who want to share with the rest, create groups, and establishing relationships.
"What difference has noticed since que Flickr is part of a multinational? Do you feel less free?
I feel equally free. I have never worked before for a large multinational company, so I have to learn a lot about how it works. What has changed is our size, scale is totally different, we now have hundreds of servers when a year ago there were only 50. Things like finance or legal issues which before I noticed. It was very difficult to imagine that Flickr could become what it is today, but in reality is the same service with the same functionality. Initially
Flickr users were upset with Yahoo, which were required to have an account with them? Has the profilememory with photos of specific life events such as weddings, birthdays or the birth of a child. That is, people put them online for you to view their relatives, the same as when you were 15 copies of a photo to distribute to friends. Flickr is another thing. I take photos of the Terminal 4 of Barajas, and sent it to a friend because I liked the airport in Madrid and I want to teach. It's another way to use photography to communicate and interact. Flickr allows you to subscribe to see photos of certain people. I can not subscribe to the account of my sister, who is a child of 18 months, and she is taking pictures of all the everyday moments in the zoo or in the bathroom, and I have access to their daily lives. Digital photographyactually no more than five years, and is difficult to predict. Today there are two ways of understanding photography, two psychologies, which are now quite different and so there are two services. Flickr
pioneered in finding new models for managing copyright and Creative Commons to offer different content to play limits? How well are these formulas?
In Flickr, there are more than 26 million photographs that are based on Creative Commons, which are photos that can be used for free but citing the photographer or without any restrictions. They're beautiful and free. Nobody is against this. The problems are issues of privacy, and social lawsseveral times. There is an Icelandic girl, a single mother, who I think was on the dole. Rebecca called and made some very good photos were not professional but had a style and Toyota chose to campaign for a new car. Also the editor of Yahoo News, which has always enjoyed photography but dedicated to journalism, has sold a picture to a gallery. Many people are not going to make a living with photography, but it's getting some money doing a hobby, like many times more than his own work.
What is the reason why he was leaving Flickr?
do not know. I do not want to leave this company, it is very fun because we are making m
