Makes sense, except for the fact that close to half of imageshack's images are of porn, while virtually none of facebook's images are 'adults only'.


More images thank flickr? But then, most of the images on flicker are of cats, well, according to Cal Henderson.


Flickr should have higher quality "artsy" images than all of them, imo.


I'm surprised the answer isn't something Chinese. If it isn't, it will be.


The article by Niall Kennedy (a couple of links in) on facebook's new storage system, Haystack, and its implementation was pretty interesting.

What happened at Facebook December 2008?
