Flickr Duo Ditching Yahoo, Too (YHOO)
Two more high-profile losses for Yahoo: Caterina Fake and Stewart Butterfield, the husband-and-wife duo that founded photo sharing site Flickr -- and sold it to Yahoo for a reported $30+ million in 2005 -- are leaving the company, TechCrunch's Michael Arrington reports. Fake reportedly left last Friday; Butterfield will leave July 12, says Arrington. (Who leaves on a Saturday?)
Departures like this aren't surprising -- it's been three years since Flickr was acquired. But Yahoo (YHOO) should be doing everything in its power to keep smart entrepreneurs (assuming they care) on its payroll right now -- not shedding them. More bad news for Jerry Yang and Sue Decker.

I still have some hope that Icanh will come to our rescue
get out, while you still can.
maybe these people leaving now were just waiting to see if their options might have come up for air?
I don't think they are a great loss to YHOO. Then again, the fact that they leave (with stock underwater) drives home the point that they see no future for the mothership.
