Adding Visual Interest To Your Blog With Photos

Flock/Flickr Screencast
This screencast demonstrates how to use Flickr photosharing and the Flock browser to add photos to a WordPress blog (or any blog or web page, really). Flock makes it dead-simple to upload, tag, and post photos. You can probably download the browser, sign up for Flickr and post photos to you blog faster than you can watch this video (about 6 minutes). Let me know what you think or if there are any tough spots.

I mention in this video that we will be launching an Instructr site soon. That's true, but I don't know when, and we are still trying to figure out what we will be offering. If you want to see anything else demonstrated, like if you want to teach your boss how to subscribe to RSS feeds, I would be happy to oblige. I am just sort of doing these as they come up until we come up with some cirricula.

But seriously, I was asked by a friend "How can I put some photos in my blog post?" so I started by showing her how she could do just that. Her blog is the one I used for the demo.
