On This Day Pre-Y2K
“What did ‘millennial anxiety’ look like in 1998 and 1999? The End as I Know It is a fictional portrait of the paranoia of that period. This section of kshay.com offers a real-world glimpse into what people concerned about the Y2K bug were actually saying on the Internet. On This Day Pre-Y2K is updated daily with one or more verbatim quotations drawn from a variety of online sources, from today’s date, eight years ago.” (Thanks kottke.org!)
