Orwell diaries

On my Google reader I've been enjoying my subscription to The Orwell Diaries. They've been publishing his diaries exactly 70 years to-the-day after they were written, starting from August 9th 1938/2008. I think I've only been reading them for about a year. Some of them used to be quite uneventful, such as how many eggs he collected that morning. But currently we're getting into WWII, the invasion of France, and Britain's role in everything, all told from Orwell's perspective. I've found it quite interesting, and wanted to pass on the link so others could enjoy as well.
