This headline would've been shocking in 2008.SmugMug bought Flickr

Yahoo bought Flickr and developed it into a leading photosharing site throughout the mid-to-late 2000s. But then Instagram happened and Flickr never really turned things around. Now a former competitor has bought Flickr from (Engadget parent company and Yahoo's now-owner) Verizon. SmugMug CEO Don MacAskill didn't reveal how much his company spent on the site or what its plans are exactly, but he did say that its free and paid plans will stick around.

But there's good news -- this SUV will be one of the first cars to support 150kW charging, which is enough to get you rolling again in about 30 minutes.
