I agree, I don't think I will be using it.

Would not use it ... did not know it existed either lol but also rarely shoot people ... places yes I guess I would but mean I will need to start uploading watermarked images I guess anyone think of a name?

I won't be using that feature.

I don't even name my photos, so I'm not going to tag them.

I think it works well as part of the community aspect of Flickr - while it can just be a place to post your photos (and works very well in that capacity) it has always had an agenda of social networking, even before that phrase became popular.

I do think they've taken a good decision to give people a chance to opt out though. I'm enjoying the interactions the new system has prompted but you aren't forced to take part.

Funny... I started ranting "Hell, Flickr... Why!!" then someone said, "so, you won't use it?"

I probably will... haha

I probably won't use it much because I don't normally take pictures of people. I'd only use it for shots of family or friends.

I wouldnt use it as I don't really take many portraits!

[CanonRebelz]

I won't use it, much or even at all. I'd rather not post photo's of people (who don't even have a flickr much less know what it is) on flickr because they might not want me to. Nobody I know in real life has a flickr (well 1 or 2 photography friends do but that's it.)
I have facebook for posting photo's of people, and at least 75% of the people I know have a facebook.

I don't think I'll ever use it. I can't think of any reason why I should.
