The
Yahoo Time Capsule project involves the creation of "the anthropology of human life in 2006." Within thirty days, from October 10 to November 8, 2006, everyone can send any documents: photographs, video films, audio recordings, texts, and even drawings. All this will be carefully sorted, packaged and sent to the future.
The idea of the project is to collect as many personal testimonies as possible about the life of ordinary earthlings. This is the anthropology of human life.
Sending to the future will be sent in digital form. A powerful laser beam will record the bitstream to the material carrier, which will be placed on top of the ancient pyramid of the Sun. This huge architectural structure is located in the ancient Mexican city of Theo-Tijuacan, near Mexico City (

All content is marked with
thematic tags , so that now we can roughly tell what kind of anthropology of human life has in 2006. This is
love (2541 tags),
beauty (1199),
fun (1021),
hope (794) and just a little
anger (181). In general, we live quite happily. Aliens or our descendants in a thousand years will be pleased to learn about it.
