Week 4, Thing #10

I can see how Del.icio.us could potentially be a wonderful site to put together websites that students will need for research projects. With Del.icio.us students could also access the same sites at home. Also, I could see this being great for parents that want to check out the sites that their children are accessing. If students are working on a wiki for their project, they could have a link to their wiki on this site as well. It could be a one stop shop.

I put myself into this picture. Driving down the road by myself as the sun setting. I feel a calm that I really do not feel in my everyday life.

Figuring out how to use flickr was not the hard part of this post for me. I found several pictures that I wanted to use. I had trouble finding a picture that had creative commons and then I had trouble getting that creative commons into my blog. I think I could do it much faster next time.
