Pictures. Pictures. and More Pictures.

Pictures are a great way to keep track of the memories made through ones life.  But after you take your thousands of pictures what do you do with them? Do you put them online? Are they printed out and placed in scrapbooks? We recently learned about a new web 2.0 Flikr. It is a website that allows you to keep track of your pictures.  You can organize them, make slide shows, and even share them to the public if you wish.  Flikr is just one of the many websites that allows you to share pictures. But not only can you share and organize pictures you can use Flikr in an educational way as well.  Did you know pictures that are placed into a slide show can be used as a presentation?  Well they can.  This can be a new creative way to get your students online and creating picture shows of something new in their life or on a specific topic.  Would you use Flikr in your class?
