Thing 39

I have found many of these "Things" very Frustrating! I go in and do what they tell me to do, but I still can't figure out how to accomplish the tasks. Oh well, at least I have been navigating the "Things" and becoming familiar w/ the technology. I'll tell you what I did on Thing 39 and what I learned anyway!

Thing 39 builds on the original Thing 23, working w/ digital photographs. 39 introduces 2 diff. ways to tell stories using photographs: scrapbooking and combining photos. This Thing can be used for educational purposes of all kinds ie having students create a word-less narrative using a progression of photos. It can also be used for simpler goals, like simply scrapbooking family photos of vacations, school pictures etc.

Thing 39 asked me to go back to my Flickr acct. and create a narrative story utilizing photos. Then it asked me to (somehow) transfer this photo story from Flickr to my Blogspot and post it there. EASIER SAID THAN DONE! This is how it went...

I was easily able to access my Flickr acct that I created earlier this semester (Thing 4 in Jan.). It is located at http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikehargarten/
I was also very easily able to upload photos from my H Drive onto Flicr, and arrange them w/ captions to tell a narrative, prgressive story. To view this, just click on my above link to Flickr.

Then it wanted me to upload this creation from Flickr to my Blogspot and post it there. I tried for over an hr and was unable to accomplish this. I need to manage my time and move on to other assignments/ blogs. Maybe someone can send me a comment on how to accomplish this?
