Does anyone know who was the architect/designer of the early Flickr URL scheme? It was so clean and nice it honestly inspired me for life.

(Writing from a work meeting about making URLs better/nicer/more portable.)

@mwichary I remember

Aaron Straup Cope who did an incredible work with the machine tags for flickr. It even inspired me for the MISP taxonomies. I wouldn’t be surprised he was involved in the url scheme. Maybe @flickrfdn knows about it
