Flickr: Free the Donuts! by jakerome


It's go time! Flood Flickr with your photos demanding that Flickr provide us Free Donuts. We Demand Donuts. Again.

Oh Flickr, did you think I would forget? Shame shame. For perhaps I've been distracted by other matters of civic importance, so you thought I took my eye off the donut hole. Alas, it was not to be!

After taking the internet by storm with dozens of events worldwide for the first Day of the Donut in 2008, we returned in 2009 for the second Day of the Donut. Lo, we have been slow to start making demands, but there are good reasons for this. We've been organizing, behind the scenes, creating a grass roots effort that will take Flickr by storm! For this, this Flickrocracy is by the photogs, for the photogs and of the photogs. And in that regard, there's only thing upon which we agree.

Free donuts.

Yes Flickr, let me be loud & clear: We Demand Donuts. Today, once this photo reaches the Flickr servers, the revolution will begin! Please, join the We Demand Donuts group, then invite all your contacts. All of them. Oh, Flickr you may mock our movement with your glib comments on the Flickr Blog.

Join the movement, and demand your free donuts from Flickr.

P.S. Let's go Red Sox!

I just had a bagel with cinnamon and sugar, that I found left-over in a conference room. Does it count as a donut/doughnut? Is it merely a pseudo-bagel? Either way, it was appreciated, as I didn't get a chance to eat breakfast before leaving home this morning.
