Thing 6

I've been having a lovely time getting ahead of myself and learning new terminology and signing up for all sorts of fun Web 2.0 things. A bit much of Habit 71/2.





But.... I should be doing things in order so here is a post about Thing 6 - Exploring Flickr. As I said before great fun but very time consuming. I liked the idea of the photo mosaic but found it to be soooo slooooow. Mapr I thought might be useful if you liked scrapbooking/making lovely photo albums etc. I really wanted to have a look at Spell with Flickr but like a lot of things on the Web it doesn't appear to be online anymore - or at least I couldn't find it despite some quite extensive searching. I though the heading on the blog looked great and I was hoping to have some fun with it. Oh well never mind - on to the next Thing.

Exploring Flickr


This is an amazing site - a mind boggling number of photos are being uploaded every second, thousands and thousands of them.
You could spend hours looking at just a fraction of the images - an enormous waste of time. But on the other hand it looks like a really useful way to sort and organise your own photos.


How could I choose just one photo to put on my blog. In the end I chose one that has a slender library connection and a cat who looks very similar to mine. Hopefully this will inspire me to upload my own pictures.
