OpenPhoto who? I had never heard of OpenPhoto until now, so I guess that kind of weakens the point of this article by about 50% straight up. Flickr in my opinion while having failed to stay relevant in a world of Instagrams and Facebook, it's still the best place to store your photos and from what I hear Marissa is focusing on Flickr quite heavily recently.
Free might seem better than $25 per month, but $25 per month for actual unlimited photo storage is something not even Dropbox or S3 can compete with. Not to mention Flickr has no barrier to entry, you upload your photos and don't have to worry about paying for a third party service like S3.
It's nice to dream that an open source Mozilla project can steal some of Flickr's thunder, but it isn't going to be happening any time soon.
- ghshephard 14y agoYou mean, $25/year, correct?
- kawera 14y agoFlickr Pro costs $25 per year not per month.
- DigitalSea 14y agoMy bad, I've got a tight deadline due and probably shouldn't even be on HN. Yes I meant $25 per year. Even S3 could compete with $25 per month, ha.
