More Ghosts of Y2K

New York Times Closes Real Estate Blog
Y2K hysteria continues to live on the Web. Check out this ancient site from Time.com, located at http://www.time.com/time/digital/y2k/.

Weirdly, the site asks for authentication before it lets the user in. Hmm - maybe that damned computer bug just went into hiding, and will soon spring forth from Time.com's servers, ending civilization as we know it.

Lots of good moldy stuff on this site, even a link to a book by Ed Yourdon (remember him), "Time Bomb 2000."
