Happy Birthday flickr! Has it only been 4 years? You certainly have enriched my ability to share and communicate with friends and family. Not sure what I’d do without you!

Trying out Slideshare, there is apparently now wordpress plugin so that this can be embedded.
Web 2.0 and museums
The Brooklyn museum is using the web, including myspace, and Flickr to connect visitors and share beyond the walls of the museum in NY. I went last fall to the Annie Leibovitz exhibit which had just opened, and I thought was fantastic. They have a Flickr pool for the museum as well as for the brooklyn bridge and I contributed a few to both. They have a paper detailing the efforts and I think represent a really innovative way to bring art and history more intimately to modern daily lives.
