Here is a blog that is kind of interesting. The blogger is taking the Wall Street journal from 1930 and posting it with the corresponding date to today (in other words, June 24th 1930 Wall Street Journal news posted today on June 24th 2009). Of course, the 1930s were the beginning of the throes of Depression for the United States.
Give it a go, kick the tires and decide if you like it:
