Yahoo's new Chief Executive Officer Marissa Mayer has lots of challenges ahead of her. One of those, the Internet hopes, is to fix the once beloved photo-sharing site Flickr.
Now making its way around the Internet: the new site DearMarissaMayer.com and matching Twitter hashtag that broadcast eight words contributors hope will inspire change: "Dear Marissa Mayer, please make Flickr awesome again" (a sentiment also expressed earlier today by CNET's Rafe Needleman).
DearMarissaMayer.com went live early today. It was started by Sean Bonner, the Los Angeles-based co-founder and global director of the nonprofit Safecast, which monitors radiation. Bonner also runs a hacker space in L.A.
"It's just been a total bummer how much it's been neglected," Bonner said of Flickr in an interview today with CNET's Needleman. "The core community has been screaming."
