<A href="http://danheller.blogspot.com/2007/02/future-of-photo-sharing-sites-and.html">Dan Heller, author of the Photography Business Blog</A> and a longtime watcher of the idea of selling photos on the Internet, observed Tuesday that there's "low-level buzz about Flickr possibly getting into the stock photo business." He concludes, "For Flickr to do it is obvious. Not doing so while they are on top of the game would be suicide."

It's an interesting possibility. With some tweaks to the Web site and an opt-in check box on the image upload page, Yahoo and Flickr photographers could begin selling images to the sorts of folks who need to buy stock art--newspapers, PowerPoint presenters, brochure authors, advertising agencies. All Flickr's metadata and relevance sorting could be converted into a revenue stream shared between Yahoo and the photographers--the practice <A href="http://www.webware.com/8301-1_109-9681957-2.html">Getty Images subsidiary iStockphoto</A> uses.
