Flickr Losing Lustr

Flickr have decided to downgrade their service. First downgrade won’t affect most of us, I don’t know many people who will be too upset with this one:

the new maximum number of contacts is 3,000 contacts (good luck with that), and each photo on Flickr can have a maximum of 75 tags.

It’s the second that has me upset:

On March 15th, 2007 we’ll be discontinuing the old email-based Flickr sign in system. From that point on, everyone will have to use a Yahoo! ID to sign in to Flickr.
