In celebration of its 207th birthday this year, the Library of Congress recently launched the Library of Congress blog.

The purpose of the blog is to "give readers the opportunity to see more of the institution" and "highlight many of the wonderful things that happen here."

For its first post, on April 24th, the director of communications, Matt Raymond, began with the words of Samuel Morse in 1844: "What hath God wrought?" - the first words ever transmitted electronically via the telegraph.
