My Flickr account screen name is "deweyfritz".
Having used Kodak Gallery, Shutterfly, and other photo sharing websites before, I found Flickr pretty easy to use. Our previous 17-Things experiences with tagging also came in handy. I like the idea of creating folders (i.e. Collections) in which to gather groupings (i.e. Sets) of uploaded pictures - one problem with my other online photo accounts is that they tend to accumulate, and I need to browse through a bunch of folders to find the one I want.
As for the educational uses for Flickr, I am interested to look into that. I browsed the site for "library display" options, and found myself wishing that more librarians would post their pictures, because the ones I found were somewhat limited -- only one tagged with "library display winter", for example.
I found Alicia's and Melissa's and Allison's photostreams - though I have to admit it's because Alicia gave me the names. It takes so LONG to look through everybody's blogs to get those details. Sigh. (What a whiner, huh?)
