2 billion Flickr photos!

However much you may question the quality of many of the Flickr photos, and whether the vast majority of photos are worth the space they take up (however cheap it is), there is no getting away from the fact that 2 billion is massive number.

The 2 billionth photo sums up so much of Flickr's stuff, pleasant enough in a pseudo-arty fashion. Personally I would loved to have seen the 2 billionth photo to be a big fat man sitting in his pants with absolutely no artistic merit at all....but maybe it was and Flickr just juggled the figures a little bit for the momentous occasion...but who could blame them?
