History We set out to create a site where a trip through time over the last 85 years from the 20's to today was both interesting and informative, and as the site has continued to evolve over the last two years we have tried to include cost of living, Prices, Events, Popular Social Culture, Inventions and changes to Technology. Harnessing the power of multi media in the form of videos found on YouTube to bring the last 85 years to life. "If a picture is worth a thousand words then a modern history site providing 900 links to videos related to events and popular culture from the 20's, 30's, 40's through to the 90's must be worth millions of words". The site is split into decades and with each year with a dedicated page, there are also sections for Motoring, Homes, Computers, Clothes and Fashion and Music .
