Jim writes: Not evaluating it from a commercial sense, but from an academic sense, Evan's work (not just the web page but all the effort and research and deep context behind it) puts it at the top 1% of anything I've ever seen done in the "history of technology" realm. It's far more than a picture of a bunch of old stuff, and it's far more than just scans of old documents. It's truly original work of top-notch caliber. I believe that in a world that is dominated so heavily by the current winners in brand-names that having a deep look at the outfits that may not be current commercial players (but whose ideas did eventually win) is very important. How such deep looks might become commercial ventures of their own... harder for me to say. There's clearly lawsuits flying back and forth about technology where examples of prior art or experts in prior art have value. And there's clearly coffee table books. But there are probably ways to succeed that I've never thought of. Tim.
