How Much Was Flickr Paid?

OK, now, the little secret about Yahoo buying Flickr has been out for weeks (as Jason Calacanis says it was all over SXSW. So much so that I asked Caterina about it when she was on stage last weekend). Now the new secret that I'm watching my blogs for? How much Yahoo paid.

More Scoble comments:

Flickr customer reaction to being Yahooed
Flickr's customers react and interact with Flickr's management.

Doc tracking the Flickr news spread
Doc tracks how Flickr news is spreading. Anyone doing more scientific tracking? It's my thesis that the word-of-mouth networks are far more efficient today than they were even a year ago. But I don't have the numbers to back it up.

Congrats to Flickr for getting acquired by Yahoo
Congrats to Stewart and Caterina and the Ludicorp team for selling Flickr to Yahoo!
