Today flickr has announced that they have been working with Pinterest to provide a way for proper attribution when flickr pictures are shared on Pinterest. Announcement at the flickr blog and discussion in the flickr help forum.

Flickr power user Thomas Hawk has a long blog-post discussing this development. For general coverage among tech blogs, check Miss Techmeme.
