I'm Just Saying: Sarah Waugh's Public History Blog: January 2008
http://sarahcrwaugh.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
I'm Just Saying: Sarah Waugh's Public History Blog. Friday, January 4, 2008. Out of Body Experience. As anyone who lives with me for any length of time quickly finds out, I will never get tired of listening to Counting Crows. I have found that same sense of captivation these past few weeks in the city of Seattle. The 1962 Seattle World's Fair has the regrettable legacy of being known as one of the least impressive and profitable of the world's fairs held in the 1950's and 1960's. While parts of the s...

History Bytes: April 2008
http://samanthadiamond.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 21, 2008. Written in the Stars: Digital History Project. Unlike other Public History programs in the province, the program at the University of Western Ontario includes a mandatory Digital History course. This course is designed to familiarize students with different ways of integrating history and technology. From learning how to blog, to practicing code, this course has introduced many of us, including myself, to new technology that improves exhibit success. Both the SMART Board presentat...

History Bytes: October 2007
http://samanthadiamond.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 4, 2007. Weltner’s ‘Scholarly’ Site. A little voice inside of me cries ranking order, TEI, xml vs. html vs. xhtml? Although ignorance is bliss, I am happy that this course has forced me to realize (although I'm still stuck in a fuzzy stage) how everything works. One of my best friends sent me this email today and I thought it was a great example of everything we have been discussing in class. The email describes the racist web-site www.Jewwatch.com.

Witty Yet Insightful Title: Showing the Extra Stuff
http://p-stewart.blogspot.com/2008/04/showing-extra-stuff.html
Witty Yet Insightful Title. Wednesday, April 30, 2008. Showing the Extra Stuff. While it's often tempting - and fun - to think of digital history applications (or digital applications at all) as large, flashy, extroverted things laden with all manner of bells, whistles and gongs, some of the neater ones are just as likely to be subtler or halfway invisible. I recently came across a neat-looking equivalent of that sort of thing while catching up on various world events on BBC News. View my complete profile.

Witty Yet Insightful Title: Omnia Mihi Lingua Graeca Sunt
http://p-stewart.blogspot.com/2008/03/omnia-mihi-lingua-graeca-sunt.html
Witty Yet Insightful Title. Friday, March 14, 2008. Omnia Mihi Lingua Graeca Sunt. Yesterday, in a fairly crowded Weldon. After I got bored of looking silly and checked the things out in the manner of the previous century. For various personal and school projects, figuring out the foibles of the SMART Board. Software for another project, and considering seeing if I can pick up Python. For the last few days. It’s more or less what the title implies – a survey and discussion of the state of...Figure out, d...
