Thing 7 - Flickr 2

Obviously, Flickr is a neat site with lots of creative potential. I liked the video suggestion (from thing 6) of searching with the tag "metaphor". I can see Flickr being used with creative writing and visual literacy lessons. I can also see art teachers using it to start discussions about visual design. I do have concerns about students using this, when questionable stuff can come up. I also find that I need to always think about separating my personal life and my professional life with Web 2.0 applications. I am happy to see that I have the choice to make certain images public, and others private. I can also imagine needing to upgrade my account, as I have only uploaded several photos and have already used up 10% of my allotted space for this month!
