Multiplying 10-digit numbers using Flickr: The power of recognition memory

There is a catch: to apply the method, you need continuous access to a large collection of interesting, unfamiliar photographs. (This is easy to set up on a home computer, using the photo-sharing website Flickr.com, and I’ll explain how.) Now, some might object that this is cheating, since the photos act as aids to memory. However, the method doesn’t alter or rearrange the photographs during the process, so their role as aids is very limited compared to pen and paper.
