Oh my word! Video posting on Flickr (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/04/08/BU2GVVMNB.DTL&type=tech) and if you think it will do jack shit
a petition (http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/novideoflickr/)

Your thoughts then?

Nooooooooooooooo!

Flickr is for photos. Videos will slow it down too much :( (It's already slow enough sometimes)

The flickr community is up in arms it seems, petitions everywhere, 'No To Video' pools, etc...

But they're already allowing videos to be uploaded :mad:

there are some funny photos on the 'No video' pools :D
