My friend Flickr

As many of you have already discovered, there is a lot of fun just waiting to be had on Flickr. I have a picture that's just waiting for a mosaic treatment :) and then, well, we all need our own Librarian Trading Card, don't we? Did you know that there is a Flickr group dedicated to pictures of pretty pedicures? True story.

There are a couple of things I think about when it comes to photos, though...1)privacy and 2) safety. As a parent, I try not to post pictures of my kids in a public venue, and certainly nothing that indicates where we live. As fun as all this stuff is to play around with, I try to be careful, and make sure I'm choosing privavcy settings, rather than automatically going with the default settings. One of the things I like about Flickr, is how ieasy it is to pull photos from Flickr and post them other places I use, such as Facebook and my other, personal blog. There again, making sure I am actively looking at, and deliberately choosing privacy settings is really important.
