Seven things to know about Flickr
During the November 12:10 lunch and learn, one of the topics we discussed was Flickr, an example of a photo sharing resource on the Web. Educause Learning Initiative (ELI) has a additional resource for you to review to get a better understanding of Flickr and it’s potential for you in the classroom and in your research and personal lives.
Quoting:
Although Flickr is ostensibly for photos, the site might more aptly be described as a venue for sharing experiences and building relationships. The site provides the tools, but the value derives from the contributions of the user community — photos, comments, ratings, and organization — and the connections that the site facilitates between individuals.
