I have no idea of how many images have been captured on Flickr. Suffice it to say the numbers have to be insanely large.

Getting Views...I recently started submitting images to different groups. In a very short time, my views had more than doubled. Makes sense because when you participate in a topical way, those interested in the same topic will tend to cluster.

Stock is it dead?...I don't think the world of stock photography is quite dead. Still, it seems that with the vast number of photographs on Flickr, many running under a CC license, it seems to me that the stock industry has be troubled.
