Thing #7

F5, originally uploaded by scotlandtb.

It has really surprised me that even with being a techno-geek I have been learning so many different new thinks. Thing 7 especially is going to come in handy for my own blog. I killed 2 birds with 1 stone on the creation of the flicker account as I was going to photograph our new bikes and this thing needed us to take photos. Talk about perfect timing *LOL*

After using Flickr I think I may have to change the location of where I upload my images. To date I have used picasa and photobucket. The fact that it was so easy to post this blog entry with flickr has swayed me a bit. Thinking on the use of this tool in education I would have to say that if and when I teach a class (one of my goals for getting the masters degree is to have the ability to teach adjunct for web classes) I think I will have to incorporate flickr into classes if possible. It is one of the more useful tools I have seen and after using it I can now understand how it won 1st place in the photo and video section in the web awards.
