Webphemera
http://www.webphemera.com
Why Webphemera? This may seem to you like a peculiar name – and it may not be a word that you have come across before. That’s because it's made up! The word “ephemera” means transient, everyday things that may be kept for a short time before being discarded. Often, auction sites will advertise items as ephemera when it really doesn’t fit in to any particular context!
So, away went the “e” off the front on went the word "web" instead. This blog's definition of webphemera is, again, everyday stuff, but stuff you may wish to go back to again and again.
