SepiaTown

Kool Ade

Old school, retro picks

Cartographic nostalgia only sounds like a psychiatric disorder. It's actually the specialty of SepiaTown, a site that aims to "to map a virtual past by collecting and mapping a vast collection of historical and vintage photographs, prints, film, audio, and other media." Think Google Earth meets a time machine. Visit SepiaTown to take a virtual tour of Paris past and present, stroll the streets of old Berlin, admire Boston circa 1850, or just search for vintage images of your hometown. Registered users of the free site can upload, map, and share historical images of their own from any given location and time period with other users around the world. According to the creators of SepiaTown, film and audio features will be added soon. Who said there's no future for the past?
