[...] I thought my interest in my Livejournal and blogging might be rekindled if I redesigned with another theme. So I decided to get one of those accounts with Ads and picked the popular component theme ( I think a couple of people use it). Another thing that seems cool about Livejournal now is they also allow to post YouTube videos now and has better integration with Photobucket (which I never got into, but is extremely popular).

[...] The company claims its video service will have a 50-percent larger viewing area and nearly 3-times the bitrate of other video sites. As we wrote last month, CNet in general is bleeding traffic and Webshots in particular has seen a 69% drop in third quarter traffic. Adding video to Webshots could be a smart move if Webshots can bring something unique to the market. I’m not sure large play and higher quality is going to speak to users as much as the large community of YouTube or the privacy controls and file integrity of Multiply. Webshots may be suffering, but it’s far from dead yet. In June Hitwise identified Webshots as the 3rd leading photo sharing site online, behind only Photobucket and Yahoo! Photos. [...]

[...] Yep, you heard me right. No more 12 photos. I’m assuming MySpace wanted to get a lot of the infrastructure and site built out, before allowing more photos. Their use of limelight also makes it better (those guys that raised 130 million a few days ago). This will heavily disrupt PhotoBucket, who is getting a massive amount of traffic, along with other services such as WebShots,etc. I’m curious to see if it will hurt Facebook, who is kicking ass in the photo department. I’ll be updating this post with some more insight once, it hits the blogosphere. [...]

Re Cameron’s post (No.16) he’s spot on in the difference between Flickr & photobucket is simply the storage/bandwidth offered by the latter for free. Having just been to a wedding and been a happy snapper with over 250+ photos to display, the flickr free bandwidth was soon gone whereas photobucket gulped the lot. Sure I could pay for FLICKR premium, but why bother.

Diaries Of a Startup : The importance of Buzz to Web 2.0 Sites Success — Sun, 25 Jun 2006 15:00:27 +0000

[...] The importance of Buzz to Web 2.0 Sites Success The buzz around Google makes everyone think that Google domination of the Internet is complete. But is it true? Let’s look at some of the numbers: Mail: Yahoo is number 1 with 42.4% Gmail is just fourth with 2.54% News: Yahoo news is number 1 with 6.3% Google News is number 5 with 1.9% Finance: Again Yahoo is number 1 with 34.9% while Google Finance is just at number 40 with 0.29% share of the market. Maps: Even at maps Yahoo is number two (number one is still Mapquest) with 20.5% while the famous Google Earth is just at number five with 2.0%. (all numbers are taken from the great Bill Tancer blog and based on Hitwise data). So after looking at the number, can someone explain why Google is worth in Nasdaq 3 times more than Yahoo? This is a very big question. What is the connection between user base size, brand strength and the stock price? It leads me to another thought - Is “buzz” is more important than all factors in order to get financial success? If you look at the number of blog posts talking about Google, you would think that Google user base is much larger than Yahoo (Same thing about Flickr vs Photobucket. Check our Michal post in Techcrunch). So maybe the real secret to web 2.0 success is simply creating a buzz around your site. Getting everyone to talk about you seems more important than actually convince them to browse and use you. if you go on with this line of thought I think that web site owners need to put much more effort on viral marketing techniques than on SEO or Add Sense advertising. How do we really value a site? By it’s user base size? It’s financial results? or by the buzz surrounding it, promising a better future? Do you have the answer?

[...] Demonstrating exactly the elitism (or intelligence, depending on your point of view) under examination, Marshall Kilpatrick at TechCrunch agrees that the aristocrats and bloggerati may be out of touch, but that it’s all in a good cause: High-authority bloggers appear to write about Flickr about 3 times as often as they (we) write about Photobucket. The blogosphere as a whole uses the word Photobucket 3 or more times as often as we use the word Flickr. (TechCrunch has used the word Flickr 11 times more often than the word Photobucket.) Does that mean high-authority bloggers are out of touch with the bulk of users? It may; it may also mean that being interesting doesn’t equate with mass adoption. [...]

in terms of ease of use, I use TinyPic which I think is part of Photobucket. I have a paid Flickr account but I find it easier to upload and link from Tinypic than to jump through the hoops to get pictures uploaded and linked from Flickr. Also, sometimes, you don’t want certain photos to be in your Flickr account because you only want to use it once. I think that’s Tinypic’s strength. Regarding Multiply, a lot of the people in my Multiply network only make their photos avaible within their community, I don’t know if Google can spider those photos.

I think that a big reason that people “talk” about Flickr more is because of the massive amount of external tools available for Flickr as compared to the other services.

Flickr’s photo API is one of the best I’ve seen and we’ve gone and made a Flickr desktop gadget ourselves ( http://www.uzable.com ) and it’s fairly popular. People talk about these tools on their blogs and this causes the “mentions” statistic to go out of scale when it comes to site popularity.

Again, there are a few commercial services out there, like say smugmug which offer a much more concrete offering (at least to the paying end consumer) that are quite simply ignored in these site popularity statistics.

I also pretty much agree with Stewart’s comment here. I don’t think that a comparison between Photobucket and Flickr is fair, really. I’d view Photobucket more as a free hotlinking picture site, and Flickr as more of a community around photos. One can’t really compare apples and oranges and still be fair, IMO.

Its been written a million times, alexa demographic is skewed towards the tech people and poorly represents the mainstream internet users.

Hitwise stats are pretty accurate because the get the data directly from the many ISP’s ,even ranking.websearch.com data is accurate because they get the data from the funwebproducts spyware which is installed in almost 10% of the internet connected desktops.

“Try to figure out the percent of those MySpace profiles store their pics on Flickr vs. Photobucket. That would yield a much more accurate picture of which site is more popular as a photo storage site.”

Dumbest idea ever. A lot of people who use Flickr use it for it’s photo management tools. Not it’s photo hosting.

If I wanted to host just one profile pic, I would probably throw it up on photobucket. If I wanted to host the couple hundred photos I took with my camera, I’d upload it to Flickr (which I do regularly). They’re 2 different markets.
