Thing 4 - Photosharing with Flickr





This dog picture was found on Flickr. It is by a photographer called Sputnik.

How might you use Flickr in your library?

Our library could use Flickr to show pictures of our remodeling projects. We could take pictures around the library and add captions that would serve as a visual library orientation.


How do you feel about having your photos public (note that you can mark your Flickr photos private, too)--any concerns?

I am concerned about having pictures of myself on the Internet. I like that the 23 Things on a Stick blog cautions photographers to ask permission before uploading photos of people. Whether or not this is recognised photography etiquette, I don't know.
