Just recently caught wind of this one. Flickr is a renowned stirrer of the web world with their web application, with previous versions being declared “alpha”, “beta” and “gamma”.
Now, paying homage (or paying out) the “Jesus loves you” movement from Christendom the flickr crew have declared that they too love you!
I’m just awaiting the inevitable howls of protest from the various groups that believe that they own it.
Another classic example of their cheeky nature is in their error messages (which most web2.0 companies seem to have to make light of an error):
At least it brightens up a potentially embarrassing moment a little.
Your front page has the word Flickr on it 30 times… not including images.
I hope they’re paying you well.
Yeah yeah stu…
Well, I *might* get a free pro account this year for it… But that’s got nothing to do with it!
It’s ALL Scott Schiller’s doing man… it’s hidden pranks and lovey dovey messages to all rooters
muahaha
Shameless advertising!!
