Flickr

Posted in Uncategorized on September 20, 2007 by butterflyjess

OK! I just used ‘Flickr’ for the first time ..

Flickr is a website where all these different people can upload photos of whatever and whoever they want! And everyone can see them .. I think its really handy especially for sharing photos overseas

At first I didnt know what to upload but I knew I had to upload at least 3 .. I found some cool photos by Anne Geddes so I thought I’d upload a couple of those .. I couldnt choose which three were the best so I uploaded four of my favourites!! It didnt even take long .. The whole process including the registration (which was so simple) took less than 2 minutes!

My screen name is ButterflyJess and i have 5 photos so far .. I think i will be using flickr more and more in the near future ..
