Hi everyone, some of you might have been aware of the Hackathon that was held in Amsterdam in honor of Wikipedia's 10th birthday in early january.
At that event Krinkle and i hacked together a WordPress plugin that makes it possible to easily search and include Wikimedia Commons pictures in your blog posts. It's far from production ready, but we'd like to give you a sneak peek and ask for your input, thoughts and of course bugzilla tickets and patches ;)
Installation instructions and a link to the download can be found here:

Let us know what you think, and feel free to tweet and blog about it, of course using the plugin to find a freely licensed image for your blog post ;)
Thanks, -- Hay / Husky
1) I have never used wordpress. What do I need to try wordpress and your tool as a beginner easily for the first time ? 2) How does your tool attribute photographers ? Can you provide a screenshot showing attribution ? Is the attribution printed on paper when the user prints the resulting page ? 3) Are you using http://wiki.creativecommons.org/RDFa ? If relevant, see my remarks at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Stockphoto.js#.22Use_this_f...
