# 6 Flickr & #7 Technology



It was fun to creating a card and simple with the image.
To then add the card to the blog was not clear. Couldn't see the pathway to my blog from the trading card mashup.
Saved to the desktop and linked from there.
Still problems accessing my blog from IE. Works better in Firefox. Is that the same for others?

No direct use of this application in my library role and I can feel some kinship with a fellow group blogger's questioning. Are we seeking to appropriate some technology to merely prove our validity to the next generation of users? Who are they anyway? Is there danger in not fulfilling our role to the current users? Or, may we see an increase in their numbers and serve all with appropriate use of technological applications?

A sense though that immersion in different applications of the internet as it continues to evolve, can breed a familiarity and a level of comfortability with technological change in general.

I like the information I got when I logged into flickr
"3,259 photos uploaded in the last minute"
