Between 1994 and 1999, the Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation—now the USC Shoah Foundation Institute—interviewed nearly 52,000 survivors and other witnesses of the Holocaust. The Institute interviewed Jewish survivors, homosexual survivors, Jehovah’s Witness survivors, liberators and liberation witnesses, political prisoners, rescuers and aid providers, Roma and Sinti (Gypsy) survivors, survivors of Eugenics policies, and war crimes trials participants. Members of the public can use the online Testimony Catalogue to view biographical information for all interviewees in the archive. This provides data only, with no video. Institutions can apply for access to the entire Visual History Archive or to acquire testimony copies.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has recently celebrated its fiftieth anniversary, and its site showcases radio and TV clips from its long history. The clips are organised both thematically and by decade and require Windows MediaPlayer. One can also take a virtual tour of the archive, which also contains much ancillary material which serves to put the large amount of data in context. Highlights include footage of De Gaulle’s inflammatory ‘Vive le Québec libre!' speech, Expo 67, coverage of the 1952 Coronation and this interview with Neil Young from 1969 in which he discusses his reasons for leaving the Buffalo Springfield.

Sadly partially inactive since March 2001, the motto of this site was "We scour the net so you don’t have to!" and it frequently lived up to its boast. it includes recent news items, links to animation companies, a ‘Pick-of-the-Week’ section as well as featured animations. The main sections of the Animation World Network (q.v. separate entry) remain valuable and up-to-date however.
This site is no longer active, but the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine offers a capture of the website as it appeared on 16/03/2016. This does not include access to the moving images.

A multimedia cultural history of the shoe in the twentieth century, wittily and stylishly designed. The site divides the subject into decades, with the shoes of each decades viewable as rotating QuickTime videos, and short film clips being available to illustrated each decade, as well as more conventional text. The Flash introduction itself, illustrating a hundred years in shoes and sounds, is a tour de force in itself.
