Thing 8 (flickr Mashups)

This mosaic contains family photos of my mom and siblings, my children, and my significant other and her children (the two in my MG nearly 8 years ago).  I like the idea of using this for personal collages to organize trip pictures or events.










This mosaic represents a projects I have done, either woodworking or renovations.  This may be something that would make a good advertisement or portfolio for summer work I plan to do when no longer going to summer school.


I liked this activity for creating mashups for personal uses, but I could see using mosaics, for example, to create displays of common geometric shapes or concepts that I could post on my classroom walls.

I have some concerns about posting personal pictures, but I have nothing that is embarrassing or inappropriate, so any harm should be minimized if these were copied.  Still, I will probably keep all personal pics private, just to make them a little more secure.

  2. For some reason, I never thought to make a nice family grouping of pictures. I was thinking that for my class I could use this for pictures of my travels in Mexico. It's funny how you can use these tools in an assignment, but see what someone else has done and find a new way to use it.
