Thing #8

J a C i

Oh my goodness...I don't know why this was so hard for me...but it was. I had no problems doing the mashups, but could not figure out how to post them to the blog. This took me waaaay longer than it should have. And I did have a great mosaic, but again, I could never get it to post correctly. And now that I have figured it out, it won't post the actual pictures...maybe because it was pictures taken from the flickr website and not my own?? And even doing that mosaic took forever because some places would come up blank if the photographers did not want to share their photos or something. I don't know...I'm just glad I have finally figured this out so I can mark this "thing" off my list.

Now that I know somewhat of what I am doing using these tools, it would be fun to use again in the future for classrooms. This would be a fun thing for students to use as well. Flickr and the mash ups could be used in my blogs for my students and their parents. I could put together mosaics and slideshows of pictures from field trips, etc. I think it is perfectly ok to share photos online as long as the people in the photos do not mind and as long as you are careful about what you are posting.
