Thing 7

Flickr is a very interesting imagining networking system that offers many benefits. It serves as a storage place to keep pictures without taking up memory and slowing your computer down. It can also be connected to your facebook, or blog which is a nice aspect. I have created my account but I have not linked it to the blog yet, but I will soon. I also like the fact that you can group pictures together, and chose who has access to them. It is important when you post anything about yourself on the internet you take security precautions. I have looked at several of  the galleries and my favorite one so far is Inspiral, which is a collection of nature made photos of geometric shapes spirals in particular. The gallery I have linked to my blog has beautiful photographs of astronomy. I really like the fact that there are several galleries that appeal to all different kinds of people and their interests. I also really likes the night life gallery which displaying interesting light aspect in large cities at night. This is a great website and I certainly see how it could be beneficial to look up certain galleries in a classroom. There are several image examples below, and if you click on any of them you will be directed to the page where you can find the photographers name!
