Flickr: Flickr 888
I love, love, love Flickr. I think if a teacher wants to have a digital camera in their classroom they must sign up for a Flickr account. There are just too many ways to use the photos not to require it. If I could, I would forbid printing the pictures using the color printers at school. You take digital pictures - USE THEM DIGITALLY.
Well now Flickr also does cool projects that you can say you were a part of. So join in the fun. Coming up in just over a week is Flickr 888. How cool is that? Here here is what they posted on their blog.
How can you participate? Take a photo any time during the twenty-four hour period that’s August 8th where you are and then share it with the group. We’ll accept one (1) contribution per Flickr member into the group from noon PST Friday, August 8th until Tuesday, September 2nd, noon PST, 2008.
Let me know when you post a picture so I can see it. Don’t forget to join the Discovery Educator Network group on Flickr to post pictures from any DEN events you attend this year.

We had a fantastic time at the event last night at Dive World. Everyone was flopping around in their fins until we got in the water and then were able to swim. Something you might have missed at Dive World is their Project Aware campaign. They bring together several projects to help educate the public about how fragile our oceans are and also what people can do to help. So if you missed it, head back over to Dive World and take a look. You might even discovery some freebies.
