This is really cool but also surreal. There's a lot of real-time reaction to the news, which is an insight in and of itself, but this feels very different from our IRC logs. Will be interesting to compare and contrast in 2041 when the OIR logs get declassified.

it's a shame that 30 years into the future we won't get to enjoy the discord/slack/fb/whatsapp/etc messages about the pandemic.

Might anyone have or know of Telecomix logs from 10 years ago during the Arab Spring?
