British Library und Microsoft announce E-Mail Archive
Microsoft has announced a collaboration with the British Library, to create an archive of British E-Mails. The Email Britain collection of real-life emails will provide an important snapshot of British life over email – the good, the bad, the ugly and the amusing – to produce a unique social history catalogue of life and culture in Britain today which can be read and enjoyed by Library visitors for centuries to come. To contribute to the Email Britain archive, emailers can submit E-Mails under one of the following categories: Blunders, Life Changing Emails, Complaints, Spam, Love and Romance, Humour, Everyday Emails, News, World Around You, Tales from Abroad.
