#4 Explore Flickr and #5 More Fun with Flickr

Ok so that last thing was an example of a Flickr Mashup I think. It's a combination of using Flickr images with another application. In this case, it's a spelling application. I spelled: "LibrariesRus" and it brought back photos from Flickr that spelled out what I spelled through photographs containing those letters. The interesting thing about it is that each time you click on one of the letters, the application brings back a different photo with that letter on it, so you can keep changing it.

I still don't know what it means to "tag" something. Ok I do now. I've searched tags "23thingsonastick" and "library cats". I tagged one of my flickr photos as 23thingsonastick but I can't pull it up when I search it, nor can I add the photo to my blog via flickr, although I did add it earlier by just browsing the photo from my computer. So, while interesting to find different photos on flickr and neat to post them onto a flickr account, I guess I can't seem to master the transfer to my blog.
