Flickr Photo #5

The picture that was already on my blog is the one that I added to Flickr. I just saved the image and loaded it on to flickr. I wonder if we could use flickr to share photos from classrooms? It would be nice if teachers could share the photos of their individual classrooms without opening them to everyone. If they could create users and passwords for their classes or parents and change them easily it might be possible. I do know that their are many students that have not agreed to picture releases so that may make it a little tricky. I wonder what our policy would have to say about things like this? Perhaps teachers could use flickr to give students a better idea of subjects by gathering photos for examples to use with different subjects. I may have to do some more hunting to see how easy it is to gather and organize photos others have added. I also do not feel I would use this to share my own photos. I currently use face book and like being able to add and share photos their. It's nice to be able to control who can see what very quickly and easily in a program that already has your friends listed.

It sure doesn't seem easy to find pictures of specific topics and save them. I can add them to my favorites but I can not create groups of favorites or organize them in any fashion.
