Flickr cofounder pens incredible sign-off note

Flickr, the popular photo-sharing site, was created by a weirdo named Stewart Butterfield and his very hot wife, Caterina Fake. In 2005(ish) Yahoo stepped in to buy them, resulting in a pretty solid payday for all involved. However, it never seemed to be a good fit for the cantankerous Butterfield, often said to be chafing at the restrictions of working for a major company. We all know the feeling...

In June 2008, Butterfield finally resigned, not to long after his wife left. And his letter, printed above is a doozy. Tin smithing? ACE!
