Sharing a photo


It's great to be able to share photos on email.
I remember the first photos people sent me tended to be huge, and took forever to download. In one I could see every fleck on the baby's nappy!

An easy way to share photos with friends and family, colleagues or even the whole internet world is to use a photosharing site such as flickr.com

When our new library was about to open, I used this site to share a sneak peek with colleagues.
I can share family photos privately with other family members who join this site.
I can share an interesting fantasy holiday location photo with the world.

The first 200 photos are free with a standard membership, but you can upload more for $2 a month.

It's worth checking this site out if you like sharing photos but don't want to have fiddle with them to resize them for email.

Here's a recent snap which I took of our new library to give you an idea of what you can find about libraries on this site.

There are library photo sharing groups on the site worth a look.

Why not try looking up your town and see what you can find?

You can also upload photos and film to this blog, as I have done above.
