Scholars who are digging into technical aspects of digital research tools might enjoy my History Research Hacks blog. That's where I put more complicated and/or computer-nerdy material, in the spirit of Jeremy Boggs' call for sharing code in the digital humanities.

I also digitize primary sources found in my research. Textual items are at Cliotropic Research, and moving-images items are at my YouTube channel.
