Hey, you seem to be going a little hard on them with the "finally getting off their ass and doing something great for the community" line - or was that just a joke?
Anyway, it's pretty cool news, if for no other reason than they'll be giving YouTube some competition in the market of posting personal videos like the one you shared in this post.
Mostly I just like the idea that you're a fan of a service that will soon be brought to you by the big M$ :-)

I'd probably leave flickr if MS took over.
Because, the only reason I see the flickr team not being able to "get off their ass" was because of the mega corp Yahoo! owning them. Yahoo! seems to strangle their new acquisitions, take del.icio.us for example, they've had a new version ready for almost a 6 months now, if I remember correctly.
I do like Yahoo! but if Yahoo! can make great services stale then MS is going to make them worse; it's their nature.

I think you may be stuck in thinking about Microsoft as the same company they've always been, when that is not the case, but let's not get into that debate here.

I was only "half joking".

well, regardless of microsoft's hostile attempt, i just wanna say that using the bumpers and the ramp is just wrong. you get one novice cheat at a time! using a cheat for both propulsion and trajectory is like...why don't you just have her walk down to the end and knock the pins over by hand? it'll be just as fun, and probably more of a challenge, cuz those lanes are like ice!

If you want we can see who's kid is better at bowling, without the ramp. Luckily they'll both do better than Obama.
