This document analyzes Flickr, an online photo sharing platform. It evaluates Flickr based on three aspects: marketing and branding, technological affordances, and user experience. Flickr has implemented several strategies to improve its platform and attract users, including providing 1TB of free storage, emphasizing photo sharing, and targeting younger demographics. Technologically, Flickr allows for photo tagging, auto-upload, and browsing on mobile. However, its automatic tagging has received some complaints. Overall, Flickr provides professional photographers and hobbyists an easy way to share photos online.
This session outlines some of the ways that social media could be used inside out and outside of the classroom. During the workshop delegates were asked to work in groups and consider the value of twitter, blogs and flickr within their own context.
The session was delivered as part of TELFest, a week long festival designed for staff at the University of Sheffield by the central Learning Technologies Team, which I manage. You can find out more about the event here: http://www.shef.ac.uk/cics/telfest.

Building Together: Nurturing Leadership through Communities of Practice - LMI...Virginia Pannabecker
In the current era of never-ending change, effective library organizations must be nimble and flexible. Formal committee structures and reporting lines often get in the way of making changes quickly and may not provide opportunities for leadership development. Communities of Practice (CoPs), as realized at Arizona State University Libraries, provide a flexible model to gather employees from diverse areas and levels of an organization to address a common interest, project or problem. The issues and projects addressed by CoPs at ASU Libraries have benefited overall organizational dynamics and promoted management/staff interpersonal relations, leadership skills, self-awareness, and increased involvement from employees of all areas. Many who participate in these groups go on to participate in further leadership roles in formal groups within the organization. In this workshop, participants will learn about CoPs as an organizational and leadership development resource, including discussion of the theory behind the practice, resources useful for these collaborative working groups and an interactive discussion break-out time for an opportunity to consider how such groups might work in individual organizations.
