Two billion dollars for a photo sharing social network with no business model
As a photography enthusiast (or whatever), I absolutely hate facebook's current photo sharing system. They force really bad lossy-compression on all images resulting in large blocky artifacts all over your images. It lacks the option to fix a problem with a picture without deleting the photo and reuploading (thus removing all of the comments). And those are just the worst problems.
I've been wanting to switch to Flickr, but it would be too difficult to explain to certain family members and friends. (and it would eliminate the ability to tag friends)
I suspect that I'm not alone in this position (especially among photographers) and if facebook can fix it by purchasing a company, then it might actually be worth a billion or two USD.
