Service/product description

Flickr is an image and video hosting website. In addition to being a popular website for users to share and embed personal photographs, the service is widely used by bloggers to host images they embed in blogs and social media.

What does 'openness' mean in this case?

Photo-sharing amongst users have become commonplace. Many people would take images and contributions from each other via Flickr profiles to decorate their own websites/blogs. It utilizes the power of the crowds to contribute content, and allows that content to be publicly viewed and distributed.
