Flickr Magazine Cover

This could really be a fun tool to play with. I have seen other people create images and edit photos but had no idea how easy it could be. When I really figure out how to take and download pictures I may become dangerous. This opens up a whole new world of fun and creative options for a school, athletic program, team or class. I can't wait to have the time to really get into and utilize some of these programs.

This was the link I used http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/

Library Thing

This is really an interesting site to explore. I included some of my favorite titles on my list and then check into the comments posted about these books. It is really interesting to read the observations and analysis about titles I am interested in. It is another form of social networking in that one can communicate and exchange ideas and thoughts about a work with someone from anywhere in the world. I believe the ideas expressed on this site could be used to get a sense of the quality or worth of a book as I would assume most of these people are making their comments without a personal agenda. I found it interesting to explore some of the other members libraries who had the same books I listed in theirs. The ability to make friends with those who share your same tastes would be quite a valuable and fun way to discuss and find new material to read.
