Thing #8 - Flickr Mashups

   This was such a fun activity!  I really liked that I was able to upload any pictures that were on Flickr, and pictures that pertained to my interests.  It is so amazing what technology can do! And I must say that I agree with Dr. Wall that this has now become addicting!  
   This would be a fun tool to use in my classroom to upload all the students drawings, projects or paintings into a mosaic picture.  I think the students would love to be able to see all their work that they have completed over the course of the year.  I also think it could be a great end-of-the-year gift to my students.  The parents would also love to see all their child's work combined into one picture.  
   Overall, I would recommend the mosaic builder to anyone who loves pictures (which there aren't too many people who don't like pictures!)  This would also great to use this tool to make an awesome collage, quilt or picture to be framed.  I really enjoyed this activity and I must admit that I will personally be using the mosaic builder again in the near future!
