• Think of how Wikipedia works, how Amazon harnesses user annotation on its site, the way photo-sharing sites like Flickr are bleeding out into other applications. We're entering an era in which software learns from its users and all of the users are connected.

• We're living at a time when attention is the new currency We're all publishers now, and the more we publish, the more valuable connections we'll make. Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, Foursquare, Fitbit and the SenseCam give us a simple choice: participate or fade into a lonely obscurity.

• Lo bueno de twitter es la arquitectura de la visibilidad. El correo electrónico es invisible a menos que te dirijas a alguien directamente. Con Twitter, cualquiera puede seguirte y este es uno de los grandes cambios que realmente introdujo Flickr, fue esta maravillosa idea de que puedes seguir a alguien sin su permiso. Reconociendo que las relaciones son asimétricas, a diferencia de Facebook, donde tenemos que reconocernos unos a otros, de lo contrario no podemos vernos.

• Theres no such thing as Flickr Pro because today, with cameras as pervasive as they are, theres no such thing, really, as professional photographers when theres everything thats professional photographers. Certainly theres varying levels of skills but we didnt want to have a Flickr Pro anymore. We wanted everyone to have professional quality photo space and sharing.

• In a world where the 2 billionth photograph has been uploaded to Flickr, which looks like an Eggleston picture! How do you deal with making photographs with the tens of thousands of photographs being uploaded to Facebook every second, how do you manage that? How do you contribute to that? What's the point?
