updated with some comments from pandora founder Tim Westergren. - MG Siegler

Yup - gonna have to get Pandora on my brand spankin' new iPhone. - Hutch Carpenter

If you are thinking of getting squeezebox, you should look at sonos which can support multiple zones and synchronized music. It also supports pandora, although not the free, ad-based version, and it doesn't result in as catchy a headline. - Chris White

MG, don't forget that a sizable portion of your audience cant use Pandora - Duncan Riley

developed an amazing product. Cashed out (smart). Could have had incredible impact on the future of social search and innovation at Yahoo but were thwarted by a band of disorganized bumbling executive idiots who wouldn't recognize talent if it hit them in the face. Most important opportunities to innovate came under Terry Semel's watch who was more concerned with being the highest paid CEO in America than either innovation or shareholder value. - Thomas Hawk

Thomas Hawk is right. Yahoo reminds me of Podtech. Had lots of superstars under their roof and then couldn't listen to them to make things happen. - Robert Scoble

Stewart's resignation email sums it up brilliantly. Put differently, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. - Thomas Hawk

Robert -- as in sports superstars often don't really make good team players. Corporate progress is a team sport, - Brian Sullivan

Comparing the exits of founders of other high profile sites and the resulting impacts would make it interesting. I just can't think of any examples at the moment. - Mark Krynsky

Brian: you're right. But they are superstars because they've figured out something. If you hire superstars and then don't listen to them that shows you just wanted to own something cool, you didn't want to really use it, or their knowledge, in a deep way. In corporations team behaviors come mostly from the top, the players are mostly there to execute. You can't change much from underneath in a corporation. - Robert Scoble

its the famous Jerry Yang quote "we inserted their DNA into ours" - Marc Canter

Yahoo should be thinking like Warren Buffet since one could hardly argue the longevity of his success. In order to be and stay successful, Buffet says he surrounds himself with the smartest most talented people he can find and stays out of their way. Perhaps Yahoo should take this advice to heart. - Devlin Dunsmore via twhirl

I have nothing to say on Flickr in particular. But I wanted to Like this for Marshall's use of FriendFeed to do research for a blog post. - Hutch Carpenter

this defection in particular worries me. flickr was by far my favorite yahoo property. i think it'll be okay but i worry... - MG Siegler

Caterina and Stewart represent the heart and soul of what Yahoo! could have been. - Joe Lazarus

"Yahoo reminds me of Podtech"! that's an interesting comment, at least to someone outside the valley. lol - Marshall Kirkpatrick

Flickr made Yahoo relevant. When they acquired Flickr and del.icio.us I though that Yahoo really understood where things were going. - Tac Anderson

This departure leads to concern for the future of Yahoo, and the future of the work that we've entrusted to Yahoo. Whatever emerges from this, the new company should immediately embark on a program to make users' data portable, to address this concern. Users have been an abstract thing to Silicon Valley, it would be great if now that the superstars are leaving Yahoo, the industry could turn to the users for inspiration, and start to trust them with their own work. - Dave Winer

I see, where blogging is heading. You are in essence asking for blog pre-comments. Good Idea Marshall - Varun Mahajan

I know I'm late to this party,but I was busy moving my photostream to SmugMug - Francine Hardaway

I'm a bit more concerned about what will happen to Flickr. :/ - l0ckergn0me

Mebbe flickr should be bought out by someone else :) - Shivanand Velmurugan

Flickr is going to be okay. It has a strong community that will make sure Yahoo stays in line. - Joe Mac Stevens

In a way, these news make me feel as if Flickr just lost it's soul. - Yaniv Golan

The Future Of Social Isn’t Content Spewing (I Hope)

June 2 at 3:28 am - Link

James Clark, Shany Seawright, Peter Cattell, Patrick and 2 other people liked this

To me the key feature that makes FriendFeed, and Twitter too, so valuable is that it easily turns people who used to lurk online into active participants in the conversation. I agree with Michael in that I'm not sure that another way of getting content online is where the excitement will be, but how we can engage more interesting people in the dialogue. How can it move more mainstream? - Patrick

Social is far more interesting when it involves people you know, or subjects you're passionate about. People that grow huge networks of "friends" that are not focused directly on either of those points will drown in it. Choose wisely when adding and tracking individuals. - James Clark
