Hey! This is great info!  For a while I was planning to just move all my
stuff to maj.com but Flickr pro w/ Flickr Uploadr sounds much easier.
Thanks.

That's the dilemma.  Easier for the uploader, but harder for the surfer to
find. I am too familiar with the Brickshelf/maj model and will stick with it
for the time-being.

This is where I think there's a lot of opportunity to create a "Flickr Viewer"
app using the Flickr API. You can have the same user experience of fast,
LEGO-only surfing and still use Flickr.

I'm also not convinced that Brickshelf is/was easier to find anything. Other
than the latest uploads, random browsing, or links from other sites, I found it
very, very difficult to locate content I was specifically looking for,
especially once a bit of time had passed. (This isn't railing on the site or
Kevin, just sharing my personal experience)
