23 is too much like Flickr

23 is a lot like flickr. Almost a clone, even down to the UI and feature comparisons.

The service is free, for up to 15 MB of uploading a month. 29 EUR gets you an unlimited bandwidth account.

The things I like best about Flickr right now are the “sets” (23 calls them albums) and the uploader tool which takes the pain out of uploading many pictures at once. 23 needs a similar tool.

As to whether another photo sharing site can take reasonable market share now that Flickr is so entrenched – Sure. Maybe. This is still a massive growth market, and since 23 is located in Europe they will have an easier time getting users there, where Flickr does not have the market penetration.
