Flickr is a photo and video sharing website and online community. It allows users to post, tag, organize and share photos and videos. The service can be connected directly to your blog for photo sharing and image hosting, and many third-party applications have been developed to creatively utilize the Flickr API.Flickr: Services
On October 16, 2008 Flickr launched a new home page as part of the Yahoo Open Strategy. The new home page emphasizes the site's social aspects and includes an activity stream.CNet: Interactive Flickr: Now for everyone (October 17, 2008)

In June 2007, there was a controversy regarding an update to the Flickr website. While adding the ability for users to rate photos, Flickr also limited what photos users in specific countries could view (based on their rating). While some of these limitations have been loosened, users located in some countries (including Germany and Korea) are still unable to view some "moderate" or "restricted" rated photos.Heise Online: Flickr filter raises eyebrows (April 14, 2007)-
