Flickr now has the videossss
by Daniel
Flickr just enabled video on their site…
At least the early adopters seem to use this new power to show off cinematic skills in the <90 second range.
But it makes flickr a mishmash site–not a photo place. We’re gonna have responses to photographs in video form posted in comments, groups devoted to videos of people kids, and quick twitter-like uses of the ‘movie’ setting on cheap digital cameras no one seems to understand. I can’t wait for those sideways videos where the person behind the camera tries to take a video in ‘portrait mode’—but it won’t be all that bad. I’m going to try to just ignore it.
ya know, like I do with things I don’t like.

I don’t think it’s all too bad. I like the idea of the animated snapshot… plus, videos like this are pretty fun. Right?
