Flickr stops accepting uploads

Yahoo! has announced today that it will stop accepting uploaded images to it's very popular website Flickr. Images will still be available for viewing and download, but new images can no longer be accepted. Benjamin Netanyahu, the founder of Yahoo! explained that "On April 1, 2010, we received an image of a purple frog wearing a beret and eating banana cream pie. This image was the last possible image, given the finite number of combinations of bits that are possible in a digital image." Netanyahu expressed his regret, but added that if you have a photo you wish to upload, you should first find the image on their site by using their ultra-hyper-mondo image search tool. "Your image is already there. Just go find it."
