Museum of Internet Artifacts

The first spam email as a museum piece is oddly perfect—what started as a novelty now defines so much of online life. I’d love to see the first MP3 displayed next to the first website, since that contrast says a lot about how fast the internet changed. It makes me nostalgic for the early web’s weird, experimental energy.
