Flickr!

Welcome to Flickr!
Back to technology...here's one that slipped right by me and I'm a Yahoo member. I'm sure that some sort of notice of this new service was given, but I don't remember it. Anyway...this is all about "tagging" websites. Users can post their photos and give them a "tag", a one word description. And you can search for photos by searching "tags". Example; search for "love" on Flickr and you get close to 20,000 photos of what posters think love means. The user creates the database.

Another one; del.icio.us provides for the management of bookmarks. You can add bookmarks to your own del.icio.us page and see what others have bookmarked; creating a community.

And more; A group called "It's The Crew" uses Flickr to make bizarre on-line comic books. They alter the photos using Photoshop and then add captions to create a slideshow.

And last; Make, a magazine for hobbyists uses Flickr and del.icio.us.
