Some things I agree with
(or not as the case may be)

Tuesday, July 19 Snapshots of Dutch daily life This is a fantastic collection of photographs cataloguing the life and times of the Dutch people from 1945-1969, all with explanatory information, archived by the International Institute of Social History. The archive I've been looking through is called Algemeen Hollands Fotopersbureau and Ben van Meerendonk, though there's also a general historical image database on the Dutch, oral interviews, video archives... It's another reason why the web is so great: randomly find a quality piece of historical archiving such as this, browse it at length, for free, and at your leisure... Beats a museum. There's also many other collections and links to other archives and databases, all from the IISH Collections page, and an entire archives page (alphabetised). Go have a look! I dare you.
