Thing 9 - Say Cheese

Now everyone can have their pictures seen by the public, not just press photograhpers. With Flicker et al you have ways in which to share photos with everyone you want (and complete strangers) for eras to come without spending a cent. And you can have these same people (and complete strangers) critic your pictures and you can do the same.


In education students and teachers can search these sites for different pictures needed for a report/project/lesson, etc. I can also see a whole class uploading pictures using a common account. Then each student can upload some photos and the whole class can comment on them. For example, an art class can contrast and compare the cave paintings of Spain with that of France.

  1. How would you use Flickr in a science class?

  2. You can make a "group" in flickr which allows multiple people to upload to the same account. I made a sample here:
