Neat Things Found While Looking For Other Things

This is one of those serendipitous little finds that happen now and again when poking around on the Algore Memorial Interwebby Tubes®. How about every, single page of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, a long defunct newspaper, from 1841 through 1902. Scanned, digitized and fully searchable. The project was done by the Brooklyn Public Library using some Federal funding. And you know what? I think that is money well spent. As both a news junkie and a history buff, this kind of project warms the cockles of my heart.
