I noticed this site while viewing Ana Valdés’ Paper.li page the other day. From the site: @LettersOfNote “is an attempt to gather and sort fascinating letters, postcards, telegrams, faxes, and memos. Scans/photos where possible. Fakes will be sneered at. Updated as often as possible; usually each weekday.”

Taber Tech/Sci/Math teacher, Gail Tschritter stumble’d upon this interactive timeline of events that occurred on any day in the past. She points out that one could also use it as a screen saver or a desktop gadget. Let it load and then wait a few moments – it will automatically load another story after you have had enough time to read the text.
