A potentially useful site devoted to route planning for walkers in London.
Are you feeling historic? Do you want to secure your place in history? Then visit the History Matters web site and participate in the One Day In History project.
The British Library, along with a number of other cultural and heritage organisations in the UK, is inviting people to submit their blog entries for today (October 17, 2006) in an effort to record our collective experiences for future generations. They believe that even the most mundane of days will still be of interest to our descendants in years to come.
The objective is to obtain a written record of contemporary British life, but the web is a global medium and I can't help wondering how many people from other parts of the world, having nothing to do with the British Isles, will submit their entries. I can't imagine that the British Library would object to an international contribution, but the law of unintended consequences is bound to apply just as much on this day as on any other!
