spell with flickr

Does work at home! I have seen at art shows and online where people take black and white photos and frame your name or initials or something. I think it is really neat looking.

Thing 4$5 - More flickr and Image Generators

This is so much fun! Now all the little pics on facebook are making sense now!
The spell with flickr did not work here at the library, so thanks to the comments on the 23Things Blog I know to try this at home. Today I made a map of states I have lived in. Pretty exciting stuff huh? :)



Thing 3 - flickr

I love flickr...such a great tool to share photos.
It is so user friendly - you do not need an account to see your friends pics and there is so uch to see. People's own artwork, random things too - for example, I searched for jam and got so many random things: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7518432@N06/2488556550/

My favorite probably is all the great artwork that is on flickr, like sculptures from Henry Moore:

thing 2

I get so excited about Web 2.0 because every one has the potential to use it. The O Reilly article makes me realize with its comparison to AdSense and Double Click how exciting all of this is.
It is also neat that this article was written several years ago - and most everything that was on the forefront has happened - like tagging and online collaborative tools.

thing 1

Welcome to my study of 23 things! Thanks to NTLP and the local librarians who have started this collaborative training.

Library 2.0 is so exciting and I look forward to learning more so that I can incorporate it into my every day librarianship.
