Two weeks ago I had a chance to fly down to San Francisco and check out the Flickr HQ. What I found was a team and office culture that was extremely similar to what we have at SiteCrafting. If you have ever had a chance to visit our office I'm sure the first thing you noticed was how quiet it is. Just as in our office the flickr team rocks out with their headphones on too.

Long and the short of it...it seemed a disaster in the making.
