Calling all UK Friends... Mass Observation Needs Us!

[curiouswombat]

My daughter just passed this link on to me. It is a call for anyone and everyone to keep a diary for tomorrow, Thursday May 12th, and e-mail it to become part of an archive of everyday life in Britain - the first was made in 1937, so a good tradition!

I'll be doing it - why not join in?

It looks as if it is currently only available online to other universities and to public libraries - although if your public library does subscribe to Adam Matthews Digital Archive (http://www.amdigital.co.uk/) there seem to be some fascinating things available to read.

Alas, my library doesn't subscribe. :( Not surprising, really, as there are limited funds and oh so many worthy archives...
