A few months back, I picked Flickr as one of the sites to use to distribute a large (1 million from the British Library) collection of public domain illustrations I had extracted. The choice was easy to promote due to the presence of Flickr Commons and Flickr’s API. I am disappointed with the loss of certain services (notes) and how crucial services are now hidden by UI and require multiple steps to use (community tagging, download original image, etc). I have seen a sharp drop-off of casual tagging and only the diehard community remains.
