I found this photo of the U.S. Supreme Court on flickr, the photo-sharing website owned by Yahoo!. Sure, there are a lot of photos on flickr. However, this photo was uploaded by the Library of Congress. Is this the federal government’s entrée into social networking? What next? Barack, Hillary, John, Mitt and Mike “friending” us on Facebook? 😉 In all seriousness, this is a great step towards increasing the accessibility of our government resources. I find it so much easier to find photos on flickr than using the boolean search on the Library of Congress website. And, if you look very closely, you’ll only see 48 stars on the U.S. flag.
