✦ Synopsis

hat do cameras, Hollywood, flick, YouTube Broadcast W Yourself, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scans have in common? Among other things, they are tools or services or places for the creation, production, organization, management and sharing of images and/or videos.

As you may be aware from current technology events, news and controversies, Flickr (www.flickr.com) is a popular digital photo storage and sharing website and service, while YouTube (www.youtube.com), acquired recently (November 13,2006) by Google, Inc, is perhaps the most popular free video sharing website.
