Wow! Now we get to put together some of the applications we have learnt about so far. Music with the videos. Photo's and pictures with narratives and captions.
Pointers with the maps. It all sounds great. Now I need to find out how user friendly these new applications are.My Calender
Big huge labs did it all. It was just a matter of clicking on the calender icon, getting a photo from my adobe application and checking the size I wanted and the dates required. When the application was doing the mashing, I noticed it went to the flicr application for the calender.
Library uses
With the regional history material and photo's in particular you could use this type of applications add captions explaining more about the images or you could add a podcast telling about it. Storytime could add the voice and images together from a book, copyright permitting. As mentioned before, tutorials and virtual tours could be mashed up using captions and arrows on maps. Verbal explanations with images of different parts of the library etc.
