Flickr caves to protest pressure!

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Flickr has listened to its users, who have been protesting all week over the heinous lack of doughnuts on Flickr.

The protest has been a decidedly dirty one, with underhand tactics used by both sides. Flickr finally caved under the pressure and announced that they would give us donuts!

The enormity of this has not escaped the world’s press who have realised that our demand for doughnuts was much more important than other nonsensical crap (eg. threat of lawsuits) over the introduction of Flickr Video.

Flickr: We demand donuts

Digg it!

Flickr Video launches a video showcase for Benny Hill videos!

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

YAY! Flickr has added videos. It’s pretty fucking cool, not least because people are so pissed off about it.

The reason it was created, though, was something of a secret. Until today… What the world needs is thousands, nay, MILLIONS of videos of things at ludicrous speed with the Benny Hill music in the background.

I have created a group for this very purpose, called Benny Hill Videos, it is already the most popular group on Flickr! Join today… invite all your friends!

The showcase piece for the Benny Hill Videos group, is the second in the Easter Photowalk series, a follow-up to 2007’s masterpiece. Ladies and gentlemen, I give the Easter Videowalk, 2008:
