Just a few more things I enjoy about Flickr...
- People - If you spend much time at all on Flickr, you'll eventually find particular photographers whose work you enjoy. As you leave comments, or as other people leave comments on your photos, you get to know people a little bit better. There are of course jerks and creeps - no different from the people we encounter in our daily lives. The only difference is, if you aren't comfortable with somebody on Flickr, you can block them from leaving comments on your photos! Can't do that with the people that walk through the library door...
- Organization - photos can be organized into sets and collections. I haven't used the collection feature much, but I do use the set option frequently. It's a handy way of presenting related photos, perhaps for a special event or on a particular theme. Here's my set from the Seattle Zombie Walk last fall.
- Groups - groups can be fun and addictive. You can join a group, then post your photos that fit the theme or specifications. Some of my favorites are the Monthly Scavenger Hunt, and Stick Figures in Peril (only look if you have a lot of time to spend and can laugh out loud without disturbing anyone). You can find a group about anything you can think of (yes, even those things...)
Cheers!
