Sherlock Holmes illustrated with Flickr metadata

Biz sez, "This guy decided to utilize the comment feature in Flickr and create an illustrated version of the Sherlock Holmes tale "The Speckled Band." He broke the text up into 58 sections, picked a keyword from each bit of the text then searched for a photo that was tagged with that word. He then wrote the text into the coment box for each photo linking to the next photo and bit of the text." Link (Thanks, Biz!)
