Darwin online

The University of Cambridge, England, has made the "largest collection of Darwin's writing ever assembled" available online. "This site contains every Darwin publication as well as many of his handwritten manuscripts. All told there are more than 50,000 searchable text pages and 40,000 images...Most of the works on this site appear online for the first time..."
Two complementary site links are provided:
the Darwin Correspondence Project : http://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/Departments/Darwin/
and the Darwin Digital Library of Evolution: http://darwinlibrary.amnh.org/index.php?globalnav=manuscripts&sectionnav=list

This looks like a splendid place for those with a Darwinian interest!
