Flickr

Flickr, which was recently acquired by Yahoo, is a Web site that allows you to store, sort, search and share your photos. With each photo you upload, you can assign an identifying tag, which allows for organizing and sorting pictures associated with that keyword(s) and also for the searching and discovery of other pictures by other users using that same keyword tag.

For example, the Word of Mouth Marketing Association (WOMMA) recently held a conference in Florida. Here are all of the photos submitted by individual attendees that have been tagged with “womma.”

Would there be a benefit to coming up with tags for our events and conferences? Lots of attendees bring their own cameras. This would allow everyone the opportunity to share their pictures in one place. Might it help build the community?
