I have heard of flickr, but never knew much about the site.  I played around on it, but I still do not know what I am doing besides looking at pictures.  Well, I will keep trying until it gets better.  I have searched Flickr for almost 2 hours and it takes a long time to find good pictures, but I did find several that pertain to Physical Education or Athletics.  I found pictures of volleyball players, baseball players, football players, basketball players, sport cup stacking and many other physical education, fitness and exercise photos on Flickr.  I just could not decide on the photo I wanted to choose.
I believe this is a great site for students and teachers because they can find any picture needed. Just search what you need and it will bring up many pictures/photos to share.  I also like Flickr because I can save my own personal photos and share with others if I like.

Thing #10: Learn About Creative Commons A.K.A as "CC"

NO.... I did not even know about Creative Commons and I guess I have never noticed or seen the CC logo. I guess I may start paying attention to this more often. There are so many icons/symbols that I never realized about until 23 things. Now when I am on the internet I see so many symbols that we have learned about. For example, I see the blogger symbol very often on various sites. I just find this very interesting.
I believe knowing about creative commons can be very beneficial to us as teachers and our students.  This also helps in knowing what you are researching can be legal or not leagal for a project, school work, etc.
I believe everyone needs to know the copyright laws and what Creative Commons means.  This is some very valuable information to all.

Thing # 9: Play in the WIKI Sandbox

At first, when I began this Sandbox assignment I kept thinking what in the world am I suppose to do, but eventually with a lot of time given it started coming together.  I may have put in more time than I should have.  I had to print out the directions to follow to get this WIKI complete.  I enjoyed putting this together because it made me think about myself for a change. I wanted to add more clip are but I was losing my patience a few times so I finally got it all together.  I think making a wiki was easier than putting a google site together. Here is my wiki if you would like to take a look at Quackin Quinny.  I really enjoyed this assignment after all. Yeahhhhh!!!!
