The Proceedings of the Old Bailey London 1674 to 1834 is a fully searchable online edition of the largest body of texts detailing the lives of non-elite people ever published, containing accounts of over 100,000 criminal trials held at London's central criminal court. This isn't the usual type of thing that you'll find me talking about, but I think it's really interesting and worth taking a look at. Especially useful if you're into researching family history. Not that I expect to find references to any of my ancestors you understand!
