I found this interesting article about Moveon.org’s use of Flickr via Echoditto’s linkblog. Today I stumbled across Flickr user DC Tourism, apparently an account created by the Washington, DC Convention & Tourism Corporation (WCTC).

Meetup Report

I had no trouble at all installing either, I only wish the recent comments plugin had the option to display the date of the comment.
