(From the desk of a photo-nut) The Library of Congress has recently started digitally archiving and uploading thousands of brilliantly-detailed images from their collection onto Flickr. The images offer a crisp glimpse into early to mid 20th century America, and cover a number of topics, mainly the war machine and the vibrancy of American industry. Don’t tell my boss, but when I’m not working on 120+ different websites, I will often drift into a digital daydream on Flickr, recharging my batteries with countless user-added images (10,444 of which are mine, forever preserved and wherever I want them). If you haven’t Flickr-surfed before, a good place to start is the Flickr World Map.
