Pretty photo by my friend

What I like about Flickr. I love trawling through other peoples photos, seeing the world through their eyes and then pinching all of their ideas!! For libraries its a great way to share display ideas as well as show our communities what great things we do.

What I don't like about Flickr is that it isn't cooperating with me at the moment and is giving me techno stress. Its ability to upload photos isn't as user friendly as competitors, say..Facebook, where the uploading is fast and efficient. Facebook also allows larger files, which can be annoying when viewing a bohemoth, but beats the two step process that flickr sometimes requires to get files down to size. (but Ok, Facebook is a multifacted social networking site rather than being Photo specific and thats sometimes not what is required)

If I try uploading the photo via the Blooger tool, the photo comes up as a link. The Blog this button on flickr is configured to my personal one.....hmm quandry. Ok, draft this while I think.

Alright I am back at the exact moment of my departure ( I feel a bit like the Doctor). I've temporarily configured my personal account to this blog.

Anyway, I did it! Yay me!! This is a photo by a friend of mine, I find the reeds very calming, I hope you appreciate.

OOPS! 2 purple faerie's

To the other purple faerie, my sincerest apologies. I did not notice that there was already somone using the name, my internal automatic default is set to being a violet hued minibeast.

Sorry! I've now changed myself to Violet!

Blog number.........

I have a confession to make. This isn't my first time. My first time was on one of those OTHER sites. You know the ones, where everyone is your friend even though you've never met. I have to admit I get sucked into the time wasters sometimes. Play pirates, hang outwith your favourite rockstar...very cool even though virtual.

This isn't my first time professionally either. But I wouldn't say I'm great at it yet, although they say practice makes perfect. I try and keep a blog for young adults, I hope they read it. At the very least it helps me organise my thoughts.

now if only I could organise my desk
