"Thing 4: Photo Sharing"

Over the past several days I have explored Picasa.  I downloaded it to both my phone and my computer.  I have found some great features including the editing tools and the advanced features such as picture collages, movies and posters.  I incorporated one of the picture collages I created into my blog and a picture; they are all pictures of my gardens and of inspiration.  I could see these applications useful in my class for students to create photo collages, movies, poster for culminating projects.  I could also see them for research presentations, book reports and group collaborations. 
I tested out BigHugeLabs, but wasnt a big fan.  I like things to be easily read, neat and organized; I found it to be visually confusing and in disarray.  That being said, I have heard alot about Pinterest and had not explored it until this lesson.  I like exploring others thoughts and ideas and images.
