Thing 9: Photosharing with Flickr


Set up the Flickr account sans problems. Grabbed a digital camera and popped this Steiglitz-inspired photo.
I do have a number of windows in my Library, unfortunately this is what they all look out to. I know you urban dwellers and back alley creepers, will of course recognize the delivery entrance to the Chamber's Hotel.
Look who I'm telling. Like you didn't know that already.

I really liked the "Online Photosharing in Plain English" film. I can see where Flickr would be pretty great as a place to stockpile your images. Depending what you're putting in there, I can also see where security might be an issue. Immediately after I set up my free account I was directed to a link, posted two days prior, detailing a "phishing" scam perpetrated on Flickr members. But seriously, that has become the nature of the beast (the beast being the internet and not specifically Flickr).
