Flickr Discovery

Well, I discovered that 3 of the 4 websites were initially mentioned were blocked by our web filter. The only one that works at my school is Montagr. To be honest, I was not that impressed with what I saw. I think there are a few options that would make the quality of the graphics better.

At home tonight, I plan to explore the Flickr Color Picker and Spell with Flickr. I can see some wonderful uses for those.

The Web Applications link has some really cool tools. Of course, several of them are also blocked by our web filter.

I like the Flickr Sets RSS, that allows you to create an RSS stream from your Flickr set. What an incredible way to keep your family up-to-date.

I know what it is like to have stuff blocked. All of the Flickr related content for this week's lessons have worked okay here thankgoodness.

It used to be that we had Facebook, Mypsace, and YouTube blocked. Then they gave all the college students access to it, but not staff, which was very frustrating.
