I recently co-founded y2kculture.com, and we're announcing it today. If
you're at all interested not only in the technical details of the problem,
but the social and cultural aspects, stop by! --Declan

Announcing y2kculture.com
The human race is about to slip on a Y2K banana peel. Will it flail its
arms madly then regain its balance? Take a heavy fall? Or just examine the
bottom of its shoe and say "ew?"
Y2K worries already have produced new types of propaganda, jokes, novels,
poetry, and unusual reactions. At y2kculture.com, we chronicle this
subculture.
Features include:
* Daily updates and commentary
* Book reviews of fiction and preparedness guides
* A Y2K alphabet, which begins "A is for Anthrax..."
* A collection of dozens of Year 2000 predictions
* Chip'n Little, a weekly Y2K cartoon
Visit y2kculture.com and enjoy it while it lasts!
