"'Generation X' coiner Douglas Coupland once defined something called 'ultra-short term nostalgia,' exemplified by a sense that 'everything was so much better in the world last week.' Change the world to the Web and last week to five years ago, and you've got dejavu.org."

"Holy Weinerschnizel!"
"I enjoy seeing any type of history presented cleverly and accurately (the historical links in the browser emulations are priceless...what a cool homage and clever contextual riff). This is definitely a case study for designing in the vernacular, and capitalizing on context and user interaction to facilitate learning."

We have no idea what people say and write about Dejavu in printed news, radio and tv. Have you seen anything? Please tell us! You may use email or the form in the bottom of this page which has more info about this project... Also, there are several articles in Greek, Dutch, Russian, Hebrew, Spanish and Portugese, which we do not understand. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Some articles actually suggest improvements which we have made to dejavu. All articles inspire us to make a better site.
