A Landmark Event in Publishing

One of my goals as a kid was to have a picture of mine in Life Magazine. Then it went under. It was my first magazine subscription and it had a profound effect on me.

So it's good news that the sorely missed Life Magazine has made their photo archives available via Google's image search.

A quick perusal through some of the images is awe-inspiring and a lot of fun. Some of the etchings date back to the 1750's to modern day digital stuff.

Google's done a good job of organizing them into categories, but you can just do a search for whatever you want and browse.

When you get a few minutes, you should seriously check it out. It is a big deal.
