Wikipedia article

Flickr has been created in 2004 and has become very popular in research due to its social networks (users have friends, can join groups etc.) and its social bookmarking facilities (users can upload and tag photos, geotagging functionality etc.). More then 4 billion photos have been uploaded since its creation and the Flickr API (http://www.flickr.com/services/api/) makes the data accessible.
