Explore Flickr:
"Yoga Girl" Poster
I had been exploring Flickr's web site late into the evening (Saturday night), searching not only for photos and images, but also for the process by which photos and images can be added to our blogs. Being new to this site, I found myself repeating several steps as I tried to find the information pertaining to that process.
My primary commentary is this: The most obvious and direct information on Flickr's main pages relates to uploading one's own photos and images, tagging and becoming part of a group(s). Ultimately, as a result of examining the FAQ's and other, somewhat more obscure links, I came upon a page that explained how to use an image from Flickr in another location, such as a blog. Ultimately, the user will be directed to a Google page (assuming Blogger is the blog source) from which the user will then grant access to Flickr for posting images to the selected blog(s).
So, I was mildly frustrated for a few minutes. If any of you think I missed something obvious on a main Flickr page that clearly provides the posting info I was searching for, please let me know in a comment to my blog. if this proves to be the case, I will then be "mildly" embarrassed, but better informed, nonetheless!
Finally, I decided to post "Yoga Girl" because I am a yoga girl, too. Interesting, the things we will learn about one another as we delve into the world of Web 2.0!
Additional Flickr "things" will be coming next.
