The Flickr Massage — Not!

How many times have you seen this message?

Flickr is not having a “massage” — it’s having a melt down. Let’s hope that the folks at Yahoo! can fix this.

I suspect that scaling problems like this helped the folks at Flickr choose Door Number One (a pile of cash from Yahoo!) vs. Door Number Two (a pile of cash from some VC conditional on becoming a “real” company — e.g., one that can scale, handle all the legal issues, start marketing, etc. Basically, a lot of work).

This massage parody is a crack up. Replace the “www” in the address for fun.
