Rob MacDougall may have more to say about it in tomorrow's History Carnival, but Jeremy Boggs and Caleb McDaniel spotted Digital History Hacks, a new blog by Rob's colleague at the University of Western Ontario, William J.

If you plunder the blogrolls at Turkel and Boggs' sites, as we are used to plundering other historians' footnotes, you'll find remarkable new history blog infestations at both George Mason and Western Ontario universities.
