Thing 5 - A glimpse of a moment in my life from Flickr

I am very intrigued by the whole world of flickr. I love pictures and the beauty that can be found in each small glimpse of a bitty piece of the world. So here's a small piece of my world, or should I say a link to a small piece of my world. Check out the picture of the Criss Library at http://www.flickr.com/photos/overduebook/252470742/

And the explanation. Whenever I tell my friends I work at the library they automatically think I work at this one, the academic library on UNO campus. So I have to set them straight, "no, not THE library. the public library." But regardless of whether I work there or not, I still spend a large portion of my time sitting by this huge wall of glass picture windows, watching the students meander by, the leaves fall from the trees across the street, and the large amount of homework pile up around my laptop.

And I was excited to find a picture of the library (actually multiple ones) on flicker. It makes this network seem a lot more real to -- that there are real pictures on there by real people. Not just artistic and professional views of the world which are shown in vibrant colors and happy children in perfect poses. Here's my world. It's on flickr too.

Also as another side note. I loved how many tags one could attach to each picture. The vast number that each picture can be searched by really gets the searcher and the cataloger in me excited. :]
