Flickr - that was the future of photo storage, sharing, discovery.

What was the bookmarks social tool called from 00’s? I loved it and it fell off the earth. You could save your bookmarks, “publish” them to the community, share etc..

What ever happened to those build your own homepage apps like startpage (I think)? I always thought those would take off
