Todd's Tuesday Technology Tips #12: This Day In History

Hello Colleagues,

Happy Tuesday!

This week's T4 is all about "This Day in History."

The website: "On this day in history" allows you to choose any date and find out what was happening in the world on that day.  When you put in a day, you will get headlines, top songs, prices of everyday objects and much more.

Here's how to do it:

1.  Go to the website.

2.  Put in any date.Inline image 1

Thanks,
Todd
