#5 revisited

While conversing with one of my compadres on this great Library 2.0 adventure about the ins and outs of Flickr, and the difficulties of embedding a Flickr photo into one's blog, I decided to behave like a librarian and poke around a bit more. Apparently the reason I was unable to do so was because I didn't create a Flickr account. If one has a Flickr account, one can see a little "Blog this" button over public photos which then allows photos to be embedded into blog posts.

Aha.

This could be a mite clearer.

This also annoys me because it is yet one more username and password to have to remember. I am accumulating these at an astonishing rate. I shall have to create a secure website with a list of all of my Web 2.0 services and their associated login details. Then I can forget the password to access it and will be free of the madness.

Or, since I think I've exhausted my patience with Flickr, I could just spare myself one password, especially since I think I'll have to set up a few more before this learning adventure has finished.

To get over this hurdle for the next group of people going through this project, I I'll create an account that everyone can use. (and add some more instructions to the originals) Thanks for the feedback.
