Using Flickr as a campus image collection solution

Lewis & Clark College has developed a collection of contemporary ceramics images in Flickr. I have not had a chance to look at all the details of the project but I am very interested in doing something similar for Wooster. The new Hales fund groups could really make use of something like this and it might be much easier than MDID. For whatever reason MDID has not seemed to catch on and so the need for a tool to allow faculty to develop image collections with rich meta data still exists.
