I put a few hours into this. I think it now qualifies as ready to go and eclectic, yet enough "links" pages thrown in to let folks go in the direction they want.

A special treat is the "Media, Dead Media Page" link. I just stumbled onto it. Bruce Sterling is one of my favorite writers. This is a collection of his posts/notes on dead media. Fascinating stuff.
