What Our Photos Say About Us

Looking at our class flickr pages (here and here) it's easy to recognize a few patterns and see what we have in common. Our differences are harder to determine from these images, though.

Similarities
  • Looks like we've got a lot of animal lovers!
  • A lot of the photos are of pieces of art or are artistic themselves, so it seems we have a general appreciation for art and design.
  • I see pictures of vacation destinations--we're a group of globetrotters (or, maybe we just all really need a vacation!).
  • Computers feature very prominently in our home, school, and work lives.
  • But many of us also included pictures of books. Who says print is dead?
Differences
  • We're spread out geographically.
  • We work in different types of libraries.

Eventhough as much as I hate to take the side of print coz I am a D-lib person(or an "e" person), but I do invest in print and I think it cant be dead, atleast not until someone discovers how to safely keep digitized documents for a 100 years.
