The Electric Ben Franklin (Independence Hall Association. ushistory.org. 1999-2005)
http://www.ushistory.org/franklin/index.htm
“Who was Benjamin Franklin and what did he do?” The Electric Ben Franklin appreciates the many sides and trades of Franklin while seeking out the common bond that links them all. A unique feature of the site is Temple’s Diary, a fictional account of the adventures of Benjamin Franklin’s fifteen-year-old grandson, William Temple Franklin, written by Franklin scholar Claude-Anne Lopez. Explore Franklin’s Philadelphia, learn to perform his scientific experiments at home, peruse his famous sayings, and read scholarly articles about him. Benjamin Franklin himself would be proud of this electrifying site!
