Though a cool artifact, it seems like the essence of something like this comes from interaction with the others using the service.

There's a really interesting podcast segment[1] about the Preserving Digital Worlds[2] project which tries to answer some of the questions about how to best document / preserve something who's value comes from the experiences users share with each other

99% Invisible should turn up on HN more often. It's a very interesting and very well produced podcast that should interest a lot of people here. The episodes are short and it's worth digging through the archives.
Here's a link to other preserved worlds at Stanford. By clicking on the world's and then clicking "Permanent URL for this" you can download the world.
