Part 1: The imgChili Ecosystem The Rise of the "Monetized Image Host" Before Imgur became the de facto standard for Reddit and Twitter, the market was crowded. Sites like ImageShack, PhotoBucket, TurboImageHost, and imgChili competed for traffic. ImgChili distinguished itself through aggressive monetization.
