Check out my lettering! I'm such a geek. I'm spending way too much time playing! Thanks a lot 23 Things on a Stick! Just kidding.
The trading cards would be fun to set up to introduce and spread the word about new books. I can envision taking a photo of a student with the new book and putting his/her review on the card. The cards could be handed out to get the word out about what's new. The other mashups and such are fun to play with but I haven't come up with a practical application for them . . . yet.
I'm of two minds about sharing photos on the web. The copyright line is really blurred on this one. It is entirely too easy to steal and use someone else's work as your own. I have had to school many students on copyright enforcement. They feel that if it's on the web, it's free and clear to use. Sites like Flickr perpetuate that belief. Some are free to use. Some aren't. Either way, students need to know to give credit where it's due.

The copyright issue is an interesting one, especially with things like Flickr. It's all together too easy to get access to someone else's photo. But, there is the Creative Commons in Flickr which is really interesting. Some people are allowing their photos to be used in certain ways, so check that out. And, talking about this could be a learning experience for your students.
