Okay, it's week 3 and I have enjoyed playing around with Flickr. I must say I am very impressed, and I think I will start using this as my personal photo site. This site could definitely be useful to students working on a wide array of projects, as long as they give credit to the creator. A creative teacher could also find some interesting uses for the site. A geography project involving combining images and information on a map would be a great way to incorporate technology into a traditional project.
I've chosen to include a picture of a favorite destination in St. Martin, Pinel Island. I took an uncharacteristically relaxing vacation there last spring. It was almost too easy to find pictures of the island!
I am having some difficulty understanding the usefulness of some of the masher sites, but I guess this appeals to the more artistic types, and could be very useful in those areas. I will have to spend some more time looking through them to get a better feel for the concept.
