of signing up... I feel like it'll only add to my various procrastination devices. I have quite a few good flicker set links bookmarked over time but never actually signed up!

It's well worth $25/yr if you take photos. If you don't it's probably not worth bothering.
Just beware of the millions of people who only comment on your pictures to invite you to their stupid groups.

25 yr? i thought it was free! heheheheheh this just shows my ignorance on the subject.... well i probably wouldn't even put up much... or maybe i would (if i had to pay). but what bugs me is that so many sets and collections that look like they would be good say that you need to sign up to see them!

Flickr is where it's at.
They've added a lot of great features to extend it's uses. I don't have $5,000 to spend on a fancy backend uploading system for my website, so Flickr acts as a great CMS for my works. I pipe my uploads to my blog and gallery right from my stream :)
However, it does lend itself to a lot of procrastination. Too many talented and inspiring people on that thing.

http://www.ffffound.com is far more addictive, imo.
Flickr is great for personal photos though. The free account is totally fine if you don't take photos (and want to put them up) frequently, but just want to put up a good amount each month.
