C-Span Finishes Project to Put Full (US Govt) Video Archives on the Web
« on: March 16, 2010, 11:37 PM »
This is pretty huge for (recovering) political junkies like me -- this week c-span has finished putting it's entire video archives online, with an awesome search engine.  Some amazingly good stuff to watch here, and a big step forward for US citizens.

In a word, WOW! That's one big resource!

You can't "download", but you can buy DVDs for $30.
