The Pirate Bay is not in Sweden. It's a distributed system. We don't know where the servers are. We gave them to people we trust and they don't know it's The Pirate Bay.
Flickr was designed partly to market itself. There are a lot features, in place early on, that let people take their photo, upload it to Flickr and post them elsewhere, on their own Web site or their blog, which meant a lot of incoming links.

Letting users control your site can be terrifying at first. From day one we were asking ourselves, "What is going to be on the front page today?" You have no idea what the system will produce.

That is an enormously liberating experience.

No, the Pirate Bay is more like sugar - it's bad for you but you can't stop using it. Bad because you get sued for it.

Backups are for wimps. Real men upload their data to an FTP site and have everyone else mirror it.
I imagine them very clearly and then attempt to describe what I can see. Sometimes I draw them for my own amusement! (talking about her characters and scenes)
The epithet beautiful is used by surgeons to describe operations which their patients describe as ghastly, by physicists to describe methods of measurement which leave sentimentalists cold, by lawyers to describe cases which ruin all the parties to them, and by lovers to describe the objects of their infatuation, however unattractive they may appear to the unaffected spectators.
I see Flattr as a natural extension of Pirate Bay.
