Flickr isn't all about creating cool Moo cards, oh no! The Library of Congress has a new project that is--dare I say it?--brilliant! Historical photographs which until now were only available by visiting the actual Library of Congress are now posted to Flickr in high-res and without the full-cavity search necessitated by air travel.
This is only one example of history on celluloid. The only drawback I'm seeing is that anyone with a Flickr account can not only comment on the photo but tag the photo and like anything else public, someone is likely to be an asshat.

The LOC flickr collection is amazing, and that photo in particular is one of the most well composed pictures I have ever seen.
