Life: A New Life

Life has posted a new "beta" of their library of photography for public viewing and consumption. careful reading of their terms of service include rules for non-profit use (personal copies, etc.) This library is a little more visually appealing than the 'Time Life" Google search I have written on before. (The two, that is "Time Life" and "Life", should not be confused--proprietary law limits the library and its use and some photos are available on one engine and others on the other site.) The current offerings at the site offer many intriguing pics, including some only just released, exclusives of the night Martin Luther King Junior was assassinated. Very dramatic doesn't even begin to explain the few pics in the gallery:
What is perhaps most intriguing is, as should be expected, the quality of all the images and the ease of copying are excellent. Best of all--really best of all-- you can embed galleries on web pages as shown above and below, which if you know some other hacks, means they can be place in PowerPoint, used for class, etc.!

Categories which many galleries are included are: News, Celebrity, Travel, Animals, and Sports. These categories are not only historical but contemporary and offer tempting options for integration. Bring it on! (I put the second gallery as a shout out for the golfers among us... I have no clue who half of them are... Does it matter? Its just a game anyway, not really a sport.)
