Today, Tuesday 17th October 2006, thousands of people across Britain are expected to contribute to a project aiming to create an online archive of a day in the life of the country. The event is organised by the National Trust and the blogs will be stored by the British Library and at other locations.
You can particpate in the making of social history by going to the History Matters web site, although as I write the server appears to have died under the strain of several hundred thousand eager bloggers.
