Friday Nov 9 2007 Thing 5 FlickrPhoto Revisited

Thing 5 Flickr and Photo Sharing
The two photos today, elephant in tree and teapot gas station, were uploaded from an e-mail into Flickr by selecting them individually in the e-mail and saving them to My Photos on the computer desktop on Wed Nov 7 and then today, going into Your Photos in Flickr, selecting each photo, linking them to the blog in Google, and adding to the notes and tags as needed.

I spent the most time on this task because of the hardware (digital camera) and software communication (Flickr to Google), and/or transfers from e-mail (or compact disk as some folks have done) as well as the fun of taking photos.

Downloading from a digital camera directly into Flickr may be tricky, especially for a non-techie such as myself. the photos in the digital camera done earlier this month had to go from camera through an independent laptop to a zip drive, then from the zip drive into Flickr. I needed a lot of help from the ten things thing but the results were worthwhile. I've never used a zip drive or digital camera before except when people on a trip asked me to snap some photos of them using their camera.

Thanks, again!
