3. You could share pictures with family, friends, students, and colleagues? People from around the world could discuss the images and provide feedback? You could share like images with a network for similar topics and become an expert? Your class could travel to another country or visit a historic site without ever leaving their seats? You could get updates immediately after new pictures were posted?

Flickr is an online photo publishing site. – It allows you to post personal pictures and multimedia shows on the web so that they may be viewed by others. – The user creates photos albums that are either private or public.

After selecting your pictures, complete the upload and start writing captions!!!
