+This site serves as a memorial to the fantastic (and now defunct) [ Convore
+chat service](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convore).
+
+When the site announced its shutdown, I was able to get a backup of all
+public-facing data, which I [uploaded to
+GitHub](https://github.com/kennethreitz/convore.json), for archival purposes.
+
+Now, the entire archive is publicly-accessible through a web browser.
