I actually love #tih but haven't caught it on my news feed for a while now. Big well-known days sometimes, but its the lesser known events that really make it interesting imo. How do you usually go about finding your daily history? I might help you out and start posting.
That's good to hear! Make sure you're using #TodayInHistory and not #TIH: I was advised to abandon the latter because it wasn't descriptive enough. I have tons of sites. Most major news outlets have a 'Today in History' or 'This Day in History' subsection, and there are sites dedicated specifically to daily history. I usually boil it down to a wikipedia article and post that. Here's a brief list: - http://www.todayinliterature.com/ - http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_historical_anniversaries - http://www.on-this-day.com/ - http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/files/specials/today-in-history/index.html?SITE=AP - http://www.infoplease.com/dayinhistory - http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/today-history-36352392 And some subreddits, if you're a dirty redditor: /r/TodayInHistory, /r/100YearsAgo, /r/200YearsAgo, and lots more on the sidebars of those subs. I usually just snag the first thing that makes me go 'Huh, interesting' and post the wikipedia article about it. If the wikipedia article isn't great, I post the reporting source.
