Flickr Part A

"It's a Kodak moment." I've been using digital photography for quite a while, but this is the first time I have created a Flickr account. It was very easy to use and easy to search. I added South Dakota Libraries to my groups and created a private photostream of grandchildren photos. Personally, I will use this to share photos with family and friends across the country instead of attaching photos with e-mails. Many still want a hard copy of photos and I have found the HP Photosmart to be easy, quick and affordable. (They look great on the frig.) Professionally, this would be a fun way for students to record and share events and/or projects. For example, in my previous position I had several students attend a Paleo Camp. They could upload their photos, tag, describe, etc. so that others could see the steps they took in casting a triceratops bone and discovering a skull. (P.S. This is my 4-year-old grandchild Hayzil Yellow Fox who on some days prefers to be Hayzil Purple Fox because purple is her favorite color.)
