save the sounds
from the Washington Post:
Museum of Endangered Sounds enshrines audio from bygone era
Here's the site for the museum: http://savethesounds.info/
So, if you're longing to hear the noise of a 56k modem, a dot-matrix printer, the ring of the original Nkoia cellphone, enjoy!

Re: save the sounds
How funny; I was just whistling the Tetris theme (which Wikipedia tells me is a Russian folk song called Korobeiniki) today.

Re: save the sounds
Got thinking of other long-gone sounds, the the cracking of ice in an old-fashioned ice-cube tray:
Or the sound (and sometimes cursing) before the modern age when mowers didn't start electronically:
Soon to be extinct: the sound of flipping thru the pages of a book.
