Jason Kottke lays down some thoughts on how the popping of the dot.com bubble led to a lot of neat tinkering, and how new infusions of money will reduce this cauldron of creativity to old fashioned money chasing.
There's a good essay over at Adaptive Path about all the new exciting stuff coming out: http://www.adaptivepath.com/publications/essays/archives/000430.php
The link in the middle of the article on the "Ajax" development technique used by companies like Flickr is a good read too.
Oh, and look, coincidentally, there's a Flickr badge on the right side of Freyburg's top page! Now if only he'd get off his ass and take more pictures! :)
Hah! Actually, the kottke thing is a reaction to the adaptive path story. And I will take more pics, though they'll probably be phonecam ones until I can afford a proper camera. But at least Flickr Pro is only $24 or so, which makes the upgrade awful tempting.
