The People History (www.ThePeopleHistory.com) was created to preserve the thoughts, memories and social history of the ordinary man and woman, similar to that of a celebrity autobiography or biography. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;I founded the site out of necessity,&#8221; Steve Pearson, said. &#8220;One day I was searching for information about Warren Buffet and all I could find pertained to making money; there was no information about his social life or the era he grew up in. I decided that a site that would cater to real people based on real events would be interesting and useful.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p> While the People History does not claim to be an &#8220;historical expert,&#8221; it does plan to leave behind a social history created from real people&#8217;s lives. Pearson spent approximately eight months researching historical timelines and events and people add personal information to the database everyday. <\/p>\n<p> Visitors to the site are encouraged to add memories (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepeoplehistory.com\/VisitorsMemories.html\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">thepeoplehistory.com\/VisitorsMemories.html<\/a>) and this can be done anonymously; entries are reviewed to ensure that no material is offensive and then posted within 48 hours. <\/p>\n<p> People who feel that they have a story to tell, or wish to preserve a memory have the perfect opportunity to do so on The People History. In addition, people who want to read about events and experiences from real people&#8217;s Lives can delve into the memories and lives of others and experience a sense of nostalgia through their stories. <\/p>\n<p> Information dates back to the 1930s from present. It addresses money and inflation, war, politics, popular culture, technology and invention, real estate and much more. <\/p>\n<p> In 1960, the average cost of a house was $12,600.00 and gas was .25 per gallon; in 2001, that same house cost $136,150.00 and gas was $1.46. <\/p>\n<p> Historical timelines mark extraordinary events and tie them into everyday lives. <\/p>\n<p> For example, in the 1920s, jazz was listened to most and men&#8217;s fashion became less stuffy. Why? What was the decade of the smiley face and when did the skateboard era begin? <\/p>\n<p> For more information, or to find out what happened the year you were born, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ThePeopleHistory.com\/index.html\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">www.ThePeopleHistory.com\/index.html<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p> <small>Text prepared by Send2Press on behalf of the news source.<\/small><\/p>\n<p>News issued by: The People History<\/p>\n<p> # # # <\/p>\n<p><small>Original Story ID:  (2640) :: 2007-03-0320-004<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>Original Keywords: The People History, online social forum, preserving memories and interpreting history based on people&#8217;s memories and experiences, Steve Pearson, social history of the ordinary man and woman, Historical timelines, money and inflation, war, politics, popular culture, technology and invention The People History   <\/small><\/p>\n<p class=\"s2pred\"><strong>NEWS SOURCE: The People History<\/strong> | Published: 2007-03-20 18:30:00<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MILWAUKEE, Wis. &#8211; Mar. 20 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; The People History, an online social forum, focuses on preserving memories and interpreting history based on people&#8217;s memories and experiences; this year they celebrate their one-year anniversary.
