One of my favorite web 2. features is that of photo sharing. In addition to the Flickr account, I have been using Photoworks for a while. I love how easy it is to share photos with family and friends and to order prints etc. There are so many photo sites to choose from. Because photos are often large files, it is nice to point others to these sites rather than attach to email and eat up bandwidth etc.
The library does have a Flickr account that we created this year. We have used it to highlight library events, etc. I like having an external source to host the photos and we don't have to keep them on our server.
Also, in dealing with family pictures etc. we are mindful of privacy issues. This is true for library pictures too. When we ask those being photographed to sign a release form, it is important for them to know that it may be on the web.
