Thing 19

Ooooh. I think this is my favorite 'thing.' I love the page with all of the different websites to explore....and since they're award winning...they have to be good, right? Of course, ComIT blocks a large amount of them, but that's okay....I'll be exploring more at home.
I'm a big fan of Flickr, so I decided to check out Picasa. And while Picasa has a few features that I haven't seen on Flickr, (editing, the ability to pull up ALL of the pictures on your computer) I much prefer Flickr. Picasa doesn't seen to have the "community" feel to it that Flickr does. I didn't sign up for an account, so maybe there are things to it that I couldn't access. But one thing I COULD access that I thought was just terrible was where you can simply click on a picture and then click a 'print' button, which will automatically take you to a print service. Mind you, I don't even have an account with them and they were letting me do this with some random person's picture. Of course, people can 'steal' things from Flickr too, but they don't make it quite so obviously easy.
I can see the library using a photo storage software like these to sort and store our growing photo collection. That would free up some storage space.
I also briefly checked out Pandora. That was really cool! I really don't see any library use for it though.
Can't wait to check out more from that list!
