Depending on the context, "today" could be a reference to "the present time". It's possible to use "today" in place of "these days" and "nowadays". Today, they are remembered as ... ... These days, they are remembered as ... ... Nowadays, they are remembered as ... ... |

| Today can also be used more generally to mean now rather than in the past: People are more worried today than ever before. http://dictionary.cambridge.org/defi...day*1+0&dict=A |
