The number of “This-Day-In-History” websites on the web is mind blowing – but what if you’re a history buff who enjoys getting that type of stuff on the go? The AP have you covered – they just launched an app called “Today In History” on Android Market that is an incredibly polished application showing events and birthdays from that day, and a historical picture that also becomes a jigsaw puzzle.
Pretty cool application that’ll cost you $1 to grab.

HTC has a similar widget on the Market..

I hate to be a downer, but Ted Kennedy is not 78. He’s dead.
@ Andrew
Ted Kennedy
# Born: 22 February 1932
# Birthplace: Brookline, Massachusetts
# Died: 25 August 2009
it says today’s Birthdays, he turned 78 on feb 22, 2010
So its right.
@DaKing
So Christopher Columbus turned 504 last year? I don’t think he’s celebrating.
More likely “Today’s propaganda brought to you by AP”.
@Artichokehold
DaKing is operating with the knowledge that Ted Kennedy’s “death” due to cancer was staged by a consortium of right wing neo-conservatives with tacit approval from liberal hippy pinkos and underwritten by the mafia, therefore he is 100% correct.
Wow, well said…
