Library of Congress tests Web 2.0 photo archive

The Library of Congress has turned to the popular online picture-sharing community of Flickr for help with tagging the library's voluminous photo archives.A pilot project named The Commons will open galleries from older news and wire services to online comments from the public. Officials are hoping people can help the library gather more relevant facts and data about the images and build a richer archive.
