Flickr and Photosharing

I do love Flickr. Of all the fun toys and applications of Web 2.0, Flickr might be my favorite. Not only do I love the uploading and sharing of my own photos (Oh--the ease of it all!), I also just love browsing through other people's photos. I most commonly turn to Flickr before I travel. It is one thing to look at maps and guide books. It is so much more fun to see photos of the places you would like to go--not only is it inspiring, but it does also help with your sense of direction in exploring a new city. Love. Love. Love. I also love to look at decorating ideas from the homes of other people. I love Danish and Scandinavian design most of all, but it is difficult in the United States to find good examples of fantastic Danish homes. Flickr links me to my addiction. When I just need some cheering up, I Flickr photos of pets. I have seen everything from adorable puppies, spoiled snakes, and even an indulged hedgehog--these chase away the blues with ease.
Most of the photo sharing questions that I answer deal mostly with Facebook, but I look forward to spreading the good word of Flickr.
