You mean the timing of that and tumblr? Or something about flickr specifically? - Brian Johns

I don't think they've done a very good job of communicating about all of the changes. - Katy S

The fact that they are getting rid of Pro accounts and the pricing structure of the new accounts. Not to mention the fact that they still don't have an iPad app. - Scoble, Alex Scoble

And yeah, Tumblr users should view the purchase of that service through the lens of what Yahoo is doing to Flickr. - Scoble, Alex Scoble

Wait - they're getting rid of Pro accounts? I totally missed that. - Brian Johns

Are you talking about an app that's *only* for iPad? Because they have an iOS app. http://www.google.com/url... - Spidra Webster

Yes, an app specifically for the iPad. The iPhone app is horrible on an iPad. - Scoble, Alex Scoble

I would have thought that Thomas Hawk would have been negative about the changes, but he loves them http://thomashawk.com/2013... - Scoble, Alex Scoble

I don't think they are getting rid of pro accounts, but I'm hardly qualified to speak. - Mary B: #TeamMonique

They're getting rid of it but current Pro acct people who opt to be grandfathered in at $25 a year, will be. - Spidra Webster

$50/yr to get rid of ads is a bit tough to take but I guess they are giving you 1TB of space for free. Majority of users won't come close to maxing that out I'd think. It would've been nice if they had kept it at the old Pro price though. - rønin

Yeah, as I said on Facebook "We'll see how I feel about this tomorrow, but when compared to the competition, this seems like a step back to me as a paying member. So perhaps there's a bias there as this appears to be good for free members of Flickr, but not so good for new customers who want to pay for increased service." - Scoble, Alex Scoble
