To some degree Flickr! is a varied type of site similar to teachertube. The only downfall to flickr! is trying to sift through everything due to the fact that it is open to the public therefore it could contain many things which are irrelevant to your topic. Conversely one can also go through prior to teaching a lesson and find short video streams and pictures for one's aid. Overall Flickr! is a very intruiging tool and worth practice and experience can prove a pheaseable tool in the class room.
As for the article pertaining to social networking. Well this is still a touchy subject which can be hard to control within a learning environment. Such things as "cyber bullying" or getting off subject would be slightly more difficult to monitor. Though social networks would be an excellent way at creating study groups and holding a class discussions, through close supervision.
