Broken Search

I think that Flickr's search is broken, well at at least broken or me. I at least it is broken often.   Most of the time when I search for a term, I don't see my photos.  I see the photos from the people I follow, I see other photos with that term, I just don't see my photos.  

I really think this has to do specifically with my account.  I have no ideas how many photos most people have on twitter.  I have over 700,000 photos on my account.  I use over 22,000 tags on these photos.  These might be the factors that is causing the search to break from time to time.  

Breaking Flickr's search feels bad to me.  One of the things I like most about Flickr is the way I can find my photos.  I tag my photos so I can find them.
