Techie Tuesday #2

What do <list below> have in common?

• Find a grave
• Data.gov

• The Library of Congress (LOC)
• The FBI
• FOIA (freedom of information act)

• Fed Flix (National Archives movie index)
• NSA
• MIT Visualizing History
• The Morgue files
• Primary Sources

None of the them are “indexed” or searched deeply by Google!  Which means students may never see these websites unless they get direct links and reason to go there.  Those links and many more can be found on the search engines of TheOlyCenter.org website.  If one of those links perked your interest – go to the search engine page to find the link!  There are a few hundred more of them broken down by discipline for you and your topic.  If you have any topics or links to add please don’t be shy – I would be happy to add them or build you a list.

Pro Tip!
If you have MORE than the slide show on you page…. In edit mode hit return a few times (BEFORE the slide show) to separate the content a little bit.  THEN go to code mode </>
