Simple CC flickr Search

Simple CC flickr Search is a Great link for photos. Basically this site searches flickr for Creative Commons photos. The cool part comes when you click on a photo it gives you the embed code with the appropriate Creative Commons Attribution. So this is what appears on your blog, site or where ever you choose to use the photo.

As a bonus you can edit in picnik right from the site.

HELLO from the lazy blogger

Hi all, Yes, I took a break from blogging. I am such a happy blogger when I blog!! Here is a new web 2.0 tool that I found. It is called WORDLE Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like.
