Minnesota History Timeline: Update III

The Minnesota History timeline is ready for prime time! It has been embedded on the MHS Library main page (scroll down below the fold). If you click on the image of the timeline it opens in a larger window where you can actually see the entries and open them. The timeline still "lives" on Dipity as well, where it has 8 followers and has been viewed over 16,000 times.

On Dipity there is now a "Minnesota Biographies" timeline as well, although it has not been worked on as consistently so is still rather bare! It was created to keep the Minnesota History timeline free of all the births and deaths of well-known Minnesotans. Dipity itself created a competing "Minnesota Biography" timeline that pulls information from the Internet anytime the word Minnesota is mentioned, so obviously, not much of it has anything to do with Minnesota biography!
