Flickr to Become the Flickr for Video

San Jose Mercury News - Yahoo revamps video site as it chases YouTube:

"'...Mike Folgner, Yahoo's general manager for video, said in an interview. Yahoo's Flickr photo-sharing site will also be adding video, he said.

One of our strategies is to put video everywhere you are on the Internet,' said Folgner, who joined the Sunnyvale company last year through Yahoo's acquisition of video site Jumpcut. 'We're going to build a much better destination for you to access all this different content.'"

Wonder why it took so long.
