    Website TechLife reports of a diary written during the Great War by a mother of an Irish soldier that is now digitized and transcribed. This diary is shared by the students of a Digital Humanities class of Trinity College Dublin.

Moreover, it is now a model of what would have been otherwise seen infrequently by the average person.
