Journal Entry #4: Photo Sharing

http://www.classroom20.com/forum/topic/listForTag?tag=photos&page=2. Retrieved July 27, 2009, from suggestions needed for online storage
Synopsis:
When I accessed the Classroom 2.0 I went into the tools then photo storage. Since I am a person who is always taking pictures I am always looking for ways to store pictures online. There were two posts that had different websites to store pictures. One was mediafire.com and the other website was box.net. The only thing about box.net was the person has to pay for it. That would probably turn me away since I don't want to pay to store my pictures. I think it would be good to have a place for kids to view pictures in the classroom. When the year is over then I have the opportunity to print out pictures that kids want. Also kids can incorporate pictures taken into assignments that are given.
When following the thread some people said not even to store the information online because some kids will give out passwords to other people who shouldn’t have it. Some solutions that were given were to have the kids being a flash drive to class and download pictures that way. Another person said to burn the pictures to a CD. They are both viable options but don’t have the accessibility to easily share with peers.
