I feel as though it is too little, too late. Flickr were in a fantastic position to dominate the online photo space (they did for quite a while) and then a little known app by the name of Instagram came along. Even the pros are using Instagram to showcase new photos, it has supplanted Flickr as the dominant online photo sharing platform.

That is not to say that people don't use it. Flickr is still quite popular, I use Instagram and Flickr to show off my photography (all of that space), but I think they need to start innovating and moving quickly again or risk neglecting their devote users for a third time.

Anyone else feel as though this new interface looks like the Google Plus Photos interface, like a scaringly close copy of it? Even the interface seems to act in similar ways to Google+



Facebook Photos contributed to the kill as well. To an extent, WhatsApp is doing the same to Facebook Photos.
