My coworker, Carla, and I teamed up on this task. She showed me podcast links and explained different things about podcasts to me. I showed her how to create a map in Google-My Maps, insert a photo on to the map, and share the map with others by inserting the proper link into your blog. When you create a new map, instructions for adding photos or videos, sharing your map, and other options, can be found by following the "Learn more" link. I have taken digital pictures of a few of our branches and the Headquarters. I started a Flickr group called "Orange County Public Library" and uploaded these photos on to the group. I then invited Carla to join the group so that she could make use of the photos. In Flickr, when you click on a photo, another page comes up where there are buttons that offer different options for working with the photo. I showed Carla how you can select an image of the proper size for your needs by clicking the "ALL SIZES" button. Once you have selected the image size of your choice, you simply follow the instructions under the "Adding Photos" section of the Google Maps User Guide (this is where the "Learn more" link takes you). I also shared the following link with Carla for custom resizing of photos. (Resized photos in Flickr are at preset sizes). I used the following application to resize my photos for the ZohoShow at the bottom of my blog.
