Jerry Yang in a talk with Esther Dyson at PC Forum. Esther prodding him to announce: Yahoo is acquiring Flickr.
Esther: Are you going to stick them on as an appendage or suck their DNA?
Jerry: hope they become part of our DNA. There is a great community of Flickr users, and we want to understand the community and help them grow.
I do too. Flickr is a fantastic service.
Jerry also said he doesn't want the Flickr community to feel neglected. The question is, do the Flickrers want Yahoo's attention at all?
