Last Friday, BoomTown dropped in on Stewart Butterfield–now ensconced in Vancouver, Canada–to see what the Flickr co-founder has been up to since decamping from Yahoo a while back. Yahoo bought the innovative British Columbia-based photo-sharing service in 2005 for upward of $25 million. Now it seems Butterfield is back where he started, since Flickr was actually initially part of an original gaming project called Game Neverending. Apparently, it never did end, and now there is Glitch. Almost, that is.
