This question is the topic of the dead media project ( http://www.deadmedia.org/), which is itself dead. My favorite nominations: The Myriorama. Once you have a motion picture, a motorized three-mile-long panoramic painting on rollers (shown while a performer narrates and plays the piano) fails to draw a crowd. Although actually now that I think of it I would pay to see a myriorama today. The Telephonic Newspaper (e.g., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telefon_H%C3%ADrmond%C3%B3). Christian So, can anyone come up with another information technology that has
definitively and verifiably vanished completely from use? Specific products don’t count.
