Week Six: Photo Sharing

Week Six: Photo Sharing



Sorry for the late post. I am recovering from being smacked in the head with a flying golf ball a few several days ago.

I chose to use the photosharing service Flickr, which turns out to be fairly easy to use. I set up a Flickr account just by signing in with my yahoo mail account (it prompted me to do so); I then followed the steps (3 in all) to set up the account with a username and profile. My account is listed below:

I chose to just pick some work demo photos for pulling wire with specialty tools, in this case "Wiresnagger pulling fingers." This service prompted me to think that I could easily use this for work as foremen are always asking if I can send them pictures of how processes should look. Now they could go online and get their own. The foremen want to print them to pass around at a meeting or drop into their own PPT presentation or handout. This is a good platform for this.



The service also allowed my to create groups of photos and make them public or private as well as give them tags. Perfect.
