SmugMug acquires Flickr

[blockend]

I found it impossible to get back into two old Flickr accounts. They used to have a support email but killed all backup leaving users on their own. I still get weekly updates to an account that won't let me in!

I enjoy Flickr. In some cases, I actually find film information not easily found on Photrio.

An AMA (ask me anything) was run on Reddit with the CEO of Smugmug, Don MacAskill.

I've had a quick read and like what I have seen thus far.

I used to log on Flickr with my gmail, then it changed and I had to create a yahoo mail, but kept the same account.
