Gosh, you should probably be able to use pictures in any classroom setting. What a fun way to travel around the world from your computer just by entering words! English/L.A. people would have a field day using pictures as story starters. My mind is kind of reeling with possibilities as I think of what other teachers could do with this site. Students could go on a vacation and share pictures with their teachers and maybe write about what they are doing in case they miss school. Art students could put portfolios together. There are endless writing opportunities with so many pictures available to students. I personally saw one photo that was kind of blurry that would have objectional content on it, but I imagine there are more. I would say that would be an obstacle with students. I don't think that younger people today realize the ramifications of posting inappropriate pictures in public that will potentially bite them in the behind down the road.
As a personal note I can see that this would be a wonderful site to share photos.
