  • [Flickr as a social network – BusinessWeek](http://www.businessweek.com/the_thread/blogspotting/archives/2009/04/flickr_as_a_soc.html)
    Repeat after me, social networking is a feature, not a destination: "When I visited Yahoo last week researching “friendship,” they sat me down with Kakul Srivastava, the general manager of Flickr. At first I wondered why."When she started talking, I realized how blind I’d been. Flickr, with 36 million members and a staggering 3.5 billion photos, is an immense social network. It’s full of friendship data.
