Post # 90 Sharing Photos

I have flickr, photobucket and facebook accounts but I don't usually use these to store my photos. Privacy is a concern for me when sharing my photos. I would only want my friends and family to be able to see my pictures. I guess if I had to choose my favorite site it would be photobucket only because I use it more often than flickr.

Post # 89 Basic Photo Editing

For this picture I used the red-eye fix in Picnik and the 1960's effect.


The red-eye fix is important for me since my dogs pictures usually have this problem. Also I regularly use the cropping tool and resizing. It is also fun to use some of the different effects on the pictures. I have Photoshop at home which I use occasionally but for quick fixes I like to use Picnik. I had not heard of Fotoflexer but I tried it out and I think I will probably be using this website in addition to the others.

Post # 88 Wave, Buzz, and Mobile

Google Wave would be great for making plans for a party, a group project at work, or for holding a meeting online. I do not currently use an online collaboration tool.

If I had internet service on my cell phone I would probably use Google Mobile and Google Search on my phone. Google Mobile has access to Maps which would be helpful when I get lost while driving or to find addresses and phone numbers for businesses. Also Gmail is available for use on the phone so I could check my email. Google Search has a way to check products prices which would be helpful while shopping.

Post # 87 Google Reader

I took the tour of Google Reader. I do not currently use a feed reader and I do not plan to start. The websites I go to regularly do not have feeds. Using Google Reader I subscribed to the library's feed.
