Mission
Our mission is to save personal memories forever
To that end, we have firstly created a website that allows you to write down your memories and upload your photos and other files, and secondly a trustworthy digital repository to permanently safeguard your personal information. We'd like to think of Paleolithic cave paintings as our closest competitor. Ultimately, we hope to chronicle the life of many people, and thus create a chronicle of life itself.
In particular, our goals are to
- Record and preserve forever people's personal memories,
- Transmit people's stories and media files across generations,
- Make all memories available to the public, subject to authors' privacy choices, and
- Help those people preserve their memories who would not be able to do so otherwise.
