If your blog posts from the same time of year are relavant each and every
year, then this is the plugin for you. Todayish In History shows a list of
links to blog posts from your blog which were posted in previous years at
about the same date as today.
The plugin is named Todayish because if there isn’t a blog post from today’s
date in previous years it will use the blog post which is the least
number of days away from todays date.
Todayish in History provides a function for use in themes as well as a
widget for use in your sidebar.
