Tagging Web Sites in flickr
Flickr allows you to use tags to organize and share digital photos ([|learn more...]) For this activity, we will explore how people tag at a personal level (and then explore beyond). I have uploaded about 40 images to a shared flickr account, but have not tagged them descriptively. Your task is to look at a few photos, and contribute tags- and we will watch how the tags evolve.


 * 1) Log in to flickr http://flickr.com with **username** cogdogroo and **password** XXXXXXXXX (provided in workshop)
 * 2) Go to the pictures I have organized with the tag (the only one used) of **tagme** (get it?) http://flickr.com/photos/cogdogroo/tags/tagme/
 * 3) Click on any image that grabs your interest.
 * 4) On the right side, look under the "Tags" headiing, and click the "Add a Tag" link. Add one tag per line, and add as many as you feel like.
 * 5) Tag at least 3 more photos
 * 6) Watch how the tag cloud begins to evolve at http://flickr.com/photos/cogdogroo/tags/ - here is a peek before these workshops even were created: [[image:cogdogroo-tags.jpg caption="Flickr Tag Cloud for CogDogRoo"]]
 * 7) Click any tag, such as [|Arizona] (which shows only photos from this account tagged with "arizona"), click the left side link to [|See all public photos tagged with arizona] -- now explore from there!
