It's why I've mentioned a few times that I
think
some sort of mechanism to
share "who has what" for the vintage community -
tailored for our specific
needs - would be nice. That way someone searching
for content only needs to
find a site participating in the scheme, and then it
can use *its* search
mechanism to find information.
IT'S WHY I SUGGESTED SOMETIME AGO ON A WEBRING TYPE
THING FOR VINTIJ FOLK. EVERYONE IS IN CHARGE OF
SOMETHING. AND YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO TIE IT ALTOGETHER
AND THAT FACILITATES SEARCHES. BUT OF COURSE EVERYONE
IGNORED IT! OI VAY U HOSERZ!!!
I bought my own domain. And of course I aim to
archive all the groovy ICBM incompatible stuph I can
find. Tony Duell stole my terminology.
The other idea I had was to arrange a marathon lol.
Everyone would "get together" for like a 24-hour
period (or maybe even a week) and busy themselves
with scarfing up all the vintij goodies they could
find on the net. There's still stuff out there if you
look long and hard enough. You got to use your noggins
though :).
