Flickr Sucks! Of all the popular 2.0 services it has the worst design, not to mention I hit the 200 limit on my first upload. If I'm going to have to pay for a service, I can think of so many others that deserve it. Picasa is much better, and deviantart is even better but not 2.0, and that's a good thing! go ahead tell me I'm wrong. I really don't care. They suck!
@marchino socialmedian will only import the FriendFeed messages that you have actually posted on FriendFeed, not the ones that are aggregated from Flickr and elsewhere. So no worries about duplicates in this case.
@michaelfidler once you pay for the service, it allows you upload unlimited photos (unlimited storage). I don't think such option is available with picasa. BTW, I already have 1+ GB of photos. So picasa is not useful for me. :). BTW, one of my favorite feature of flickr is you have control on guestpass. It can be time limited.
I have a Picasa account. I live in the cloud. Make use of many Google Services. However, I have to say that I find Flickr is WAY better than Picasa in terms what it offers, and its interface.
That 1GB limit is useless to me anyway, whereas $25 for a Flickr Pro account is good value.
