Week Four: Photo Sharing (23 Things)

I have skipped 23 Things, Online Meetings, because I am still scrounging for a headset. I have decided I will pick that one up later.

This week 23 Things is focusing on one of my favorite things, photo sharing. The services I am supposed to explore include Flickr, Picasa, Snapfish, Shutterfly, Kodak Gallery or Photobucket. With the exception of Kodak Gallery, I currently have accounts with all of these services but I have to admit, most of photos still reside on Myspace (older) and Facebook (newer). Instead of inserting a picture into my post (the assignment), I provided a link to Flickr in the sidebar.

My family uses Snapfish because it is owned by Hewlett Packard and since my sister works for them, the family shows its brand loyalty by uploading our shared pictures to that site. I used Flickr heavily for a couple of years but now only post trip pictures there.

If you want to "friend" me on these sites I have provided links below.

Week One: Blogging AKA: Inventive Librarian Training

Some wonderfully inventive librarians have come up with their own spin on the original 23 Things concept. While I am fairly tech savvy, I am planning to participate in order to hone my skills and maybe even find a few new things. It's a Kansas Library project but they will let those of us who live or work out-of-state participate.

Take a look at Librarian, Erin Howerton, hosting the opening module: Blogging. 23 Things - http://www.23thingskansas.org/

Stephen's Lighthouse has also provided a little history on the 23 Things project.
