The Library of Congress is uploading many series of photos it has onto Flickr for other users to comment, tag and index. PRI's latest podcast had a great interview about LOC + Flickr. It makes anyone a history detective and really allows for community interaction with a great collection of memories. The beauty and place of picture is now a networked social discussion. The project is still in the first phase but more photos to come.
The 1930-1940's set is classic...particularly interesting is the strong woman workforce building bombers and other aircraft.
