Today, I'm co-hosting an online event on TechSoup about Flickr with Heather Camp, Flickr Community Manager. I think there is a benefit of uploading only 4-6 photos at a time because your followers only see the last 4 images you've posted anyway. I love online discussions with a mix of experience.

Meta tags have been abused by so many shifty search engine optimization (SEO) specialists over the past 10 years that search engines are increasingly giving higher priority to page titles to generate their search results. Meta tags are still relevant, but fresh content and page titles are increasingly dominating search results.

While doing research, I found myself digging back into old arguments on museum listservs about photo policies and I want to add my two (very opinionated) cents on this. If people can take their own photos, they won't buy them in the gift shop. Aesthetics of Experience: Photo-taking is distracting for other visitors.

I think this is a hard concept for many to agree with because of the process by which the social media tools are most often adopted in organizations: for example, Jane really likes taking pictures and usually posts them to Flickr (an online photo sharing website) as a way to store them, sort them, and share them.
