Scrolltexts. The blogs of the 80'ies.

Welcome to the home of the Scrolltext preservation society!

What is the problem?

Everyday people have, for the last 500 years, expressed their opinions and everyday thoughts by printing them on paper. Copies of every book and magazine ever printed, in for instance Sweden, are kept for reference and scientific studies at special government-funded buildings like the Univeristy Libraries. No problem.

The last couple of 15 years, people started writing blogs on Internet. And those get preserved by Bots archiving Internet for further reference needs. No problem.

For the last 5 years, people have put their thoughts on Facebook and such. And those companies' _only_ value is in keeping all this for themselves. A slight problem, but let's ignore that for now.

But there is a gap there - which started back around 1985 and is still ongoing, and that is the blogging of the 80'ies - the scrolltexts. There is no way of searching in them, no way of finding stuff in them, and hardly no one left with the knowledge of how to extract the texts. That's where the Scrolltext preservation society comes in. We now have more than 97000 scrolltexts indexed. If you have what it takes, please get in touch and help us out!
