So far, actually, pretty pleased with Flickr. Will play with it and use it for photos for a little while, if the favorable impression continues (and I suspect it will since I know others who like them and my main concern at this point would be service outages or screwups, which irritate most people), then I'll definitely be switching my main photo hosting there and getting a paid account. (When people do things the way you want, I figure you should support them. Buzznet wasn't, and really, no benefit for me. Ironically there is not a lot of benefit at Flickr for me in paying, unless I start taking many more photos, since everything else is good for free accounts as well. But it's right, if they're doing everything I wanted, and besides it would let me upload, well, tons. *grins*)
Update: I do not like their upload paradigm. It takes the title from the file name, and the timestamp from the file. You can edit them after but you can't set the time on upload in any of their tools I've yet used, and you can only set the title on upload from the web page (but, at least you can!). How ugly is that? And since they are editable later, you'd think it would be dirt simple to make it easy to edit them as you upload. Most of the tools (and even the web page as far as timestamps) seem to think it's more important to process multiples than to process a single one correctly. I completely disagree.
