Flickr is a website that allows users to upload digital pictures from their computer and share them with just their friends or the whole entire planet. Users can “tag” an image with key words that describe the picture. This allows people to search Flickr for pictures that interest them by entering tag words into the search window.

I can see this feature being useful in a library but I would be careful choosing photos because of "sharing photos" with public which could cause problems. I can just imagine how useful Flickr and Picnik can be in promoting library services, events and resources.
