Assignment #3: Photos & Imaging

The first application that comes to mind for how the United Way could use photos and imaging on the web is buy utilizing Flickr to capture and share photos of our events. Our teen movie night in particular would be good to have photos online that the partipants could see and could be linked to from our primary website.

The first mashup application that comes to mind would be combining our donor demographic information with a map, and maybe also combined with statistics Canada information to get a picture of where the money is coming from in our community. The would be confidential of course however since it involves donor information and so couldn't be made public on the website. A public application could be combining a map of the transit system with a mapping of our funded agencies. Combining this further with our listing of volunteer opportunities and their locations would also be useful.

I'm not sure how image generation would apply for us.
