Thing # 11:Flickr Photosharing and Tagging

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.

  1. I use Flickr a lot when I have to put a presentation together. There is a whole database of photos with Creative Commons licensing that you can use. It does take a lot of time, but finding an unusual picture that really illustrates your point is worth it.
