The Y2K File

Nick Peterson

The year 2000. A search engine to understand the internet and beyond. The ultimate guide to survive inside the internet and beyond, the Y2K File is the story of the Y2K diary. Launched in 1999 at the turn of the new millennium it has witnessed all the events of the Y2K years until today; from the conspiracy theories to the 'who's who' and 'what's what 'of the players, winners and losers weaving the web. Since its inception the diary has often been described a compendium of gobbledygook. Indeed what cannot be found on Google can generally be found on the ultimate encyclopaedia of gibberish, the Y2K diary. The Y2K Diary is a blue print, a bible for anything beyond the year 2000. Over 500 stories emerged out of the diary -and some of the most extreme- one has been made into a film, an opera-murder-mystery-thriller.
