Usenet With a 30 Year Lag

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the deja-what-now dept.

joey writes "The early A-News days of Usenet are being played out on olduse.net in realtime with a 30 year time delay. You can catch up on what rms and Postel are doing, Keep informed of the latest prices in disk drives ($75000 per gigabyte), and more. Available through a web-based teletype or NNTP. I plan to run the service for the next ten years, until 1991."

    Besides a 30-year reverse time warp we have a recursive link. That's deep. Too deep for a Monday really...

    I'm ending it when my archive ends. If google or someone wants to donate more material I'll consider running it further.

    I'd like to get to 1994 myself, so I can read my own 1st post.
