What artifacts are we leaving which will allow people in 3400 years to get a glimpse of daily events in our lives?
Digital information and toner/ink on paper will not last nearly that long.
Maybe humans of this age should be curating some etching on stone or even more durable materials, to record some of our history for posterity?
The History Blog is a small gem because it is serious and not sensational. Always with a good level of detail for the average interested visitor, and from the original (or close by) sources. Plus pictures.
And they support RSS! Albeit through WordPress but nobody's perfect
RSS is RSS. Does it matter to a client how it’s generated?
What's wrong with WordPress?
How much time you got?
