I just read that Israel's Holocaust memorial, Yad Vashem, is teaming up with Google to make its photographs and documents interactive and searchable on the Internet.
A collection of 130,000 photos can now be searched directly from Google, using standard keywords and other data that make it far easier than in the past to find the desired information.
Viewers can also add their own comments, stories and document.
This sounds very neat. It's amazing how the internet has opened up so much in terms of doing historical research or researching one's family history.
