For Thing 7, We are suppose to explore Flickr. I have explore Flickr before and actually used some of the pictures for projects or powerpoints. I find it very interesting what people will put on Flickr and how much you can use Flickr for. I had no idea until today that you can join groups on Flickr with the same interests that you have. For example, I choose animals as one of my searches and you can join all types of Animal activist groups. You can even join like a Vegan or Vegetarian group. In these groups, you can participate in group discussions. It was so interesting. Another picture that I found that I absolutely love is the O.P.I nail polish!! I love getting my nails done. So I search nails and found this adorable picture!
I would be a little worried about using this in a classroom though. You can upload anything to Flickr. Since I intend on teaching elementary school, I may pull or use pictures for the website but I would not just let my students go exploring. That is to risky...
