Thing 5 - Flickr

Wow, okay, so I failed at displaying picture from Flickr. It only took a bit of searching to find out that the poster of the picture can determine if you can cross post, link, etc. I finally found a section of Flickr called, Creative Commons, that allowed me to link pictures. A bit of hassle, but I also understand the copy right and privacy issues.



So... here goes:

I liked Flickr more before they joined with Yahoo. I understand what Yahoo brought to the table for them, but I just liked their service more before they were bought out. Still, Flickr is a great tool for share photos around the web, but there are other sites such as smugmug, photobucket, etc.

As to use in a library... well it is a nice tool for sharing updates on projects, arts shows, and events. A plus is that it get is off your servers and onto someone else there by freeing up space at home. It is a great way to show the community what you are working on and projects you have lined up for the future. Plus, you can tie it to a RSS feed to update subscribers when you have posted new photos :-)

Anyways... on to Thing 6 and 7. I've fallen a bit behind due to illness. :-(
