Most of the logs were kept by naval captains, masters, lieutenants and masters' mates, although there are a few logs which were kept by boatswains or assistant surgeons. Amongst this collection of Royal Naval logs, there are a several logs which were kept by merchant ships. "

Very cool! You can download free audiobooks (and for once not all of them are C19th originals; some are quite recent) in a format that plays through iTunes and on your iPod/iPhone. For those of us who use iTunes to get our podcasts/lectures/etc this is good news indeed!

A cornucopia of history sites that I got from the excellent NCSS History group. If I was a really diligent group member I would save them each individually. But I'm not.

Good for basic research or a lesson activity. Some of the articles looked alright. I'm not sure how the content is generated or if it's very reliable.

A large set of collections of photographs and images from a diverse range of time periods and places. Some of them only have sample images, however quite a few have full access. If only Diigo let us use more than 20 tags!

How cool is this? A (hopefully legal...) collection of free documentaries. There are 61 full-length history documentaries at the moment including 'Fog of War', a documentary about the Kennedy administration.

A useful resource for engaging with Gen Y. The rap isn't bad (I think) and the quality of the historical information is quite good for a middle or high school level. They aren't free however they're not too expensive either.
