Week Three, Thing 1 -- Learn about Flickr

This is more fun than anyone with a serious job should be allowed to have. I can think of endless uses, both for my students and personally, for Flickr. I am still getting the hang of the group thing, and once again, I feel shy about sharing. I guess I have to get out of "lurker" mode in all of these 2.0 situations; I find I want to stay in the background and not get out there.

Anyway, for a non-visual "word" person like me, it's great to spend some time just looking at and playing with images. And to remember how visual my kids and my students are.

Sites like Flickr are such a gift to the rest of us; technology at its best.
