Flickr Photos Integrated into Yahoo Image Search
Thomas Hawk's Digital Connection: Flickr Photos Integrated into Yahoo Image Search
Thomas Hawk, CEO of Zummr, writes insightfully about Yahoo's integration of Flickr for searches. Thomas' take is frank and unbiased. In the comments, he mentions how to opt out for this type of search, however, Thomas does think the search will bring good attention to photographers.
My personal take is in line with Thomas'. I'd love to have someone be able to find my better pictures. Also knowing that they can be searched outside of Flickr, I'll probably try to add more tags to my photos.
Please click through and let Thomas know what you think.
Nods to Thomas,
Yours,
Todd

Honestly, I will always see Mr. Hawk as biased so I find it hard to read anything he has to say (just being honest here), but regarding the images, I'm not sure I see why some are complaining. Looks to me like you're given the Flickr page when clicking "view image" rather than the image itself so how is this different from finding it in a Google search?
He and I have disagreed once or twice on some things, but I think if review here is fair enough this time. Can't forgo that he's a sharp guy with a keen eye for photography.
