I would not use Flickr for school as my kids are under the age of 12 and for how often we might use it the photo collection would probably disappear as I would have to maintain it before three months of last update. This is more of a polished or wannabe photographer site in my mind. Great for sharing my images but too public for my students.
In fact, I am trying so hard to get it (Ah! I spent 3 hours this am trying to get it embedded) that I really want to do this now. I want to make my trips of pictures into a collage or movie to share. I can see this being a great thing for kids or parents to see on a pad mounted on the wall at the office. Also, for resumes or advocacy! Yah! I am hooked on sharing pictures this way.
I loved organizing the pictures and picking music!
If I get this to work – I will post my movie. I might ask a techy at school so I can get over it and move on!!
I know how you feel. I had a lot of issues with Picasa and embedding as well...
ReplyDeleteI was reading Shannon's blog and noticed that Aaron commented and gave her this link that may help:

I'm going to try it myself and attempt to embed Picasa photos a second time!
