History tends to leave behind mostly two kinds of information - the irrelevant and the biased. Archaeologists are
either digging up people's thrown away junk, or reading some emperor's pompous account of his great deeds.
The archaeology of the future will involve carefully extracting random 1s and 0s off of media and theorising what it
all could mean. In the reckless and fast moving digital world, many stumbling blocks have been created that would
drastically inhibit future generations learning about our ancient digital existence.
