Blog 10

http://www.flickr.com/
The 2.0 website that I chose to review is called flickr. It is a photo sharing website where you can upload, explore, create your own photos and keep in touch with other photo sharers. You can share your own photos or explore others.
I can be used instead of searching on google, or instead of having to take your own photos. It seems extremely easy to navigate around the site. It has earned recognition from many top ten reviews such as http://photo-sharing-services-review.toptenreviews.com/flickr-review.html. It is said to be very popular because of its simplicity and large community of users.
I think this site would be used often in K-12 classes. If kids learned the benefits of searching this site rather than google images they could enhance their work tremendously and stand out with uniqueness. Teachers can use it for sharing photos they have found that pertains to the material being taught or by having their students upload pictures for a specific topic or project.
