Internet Achievements

I have been noticing an emergence on the Internet lately. There are certain things on my various internet profiles like reddit and youtube that show that "I was there" when some internet event happen. For example I am still subscribed to this youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/cadiesingularity which was part of Googles 2009 April fools joke, this gem shows that I participated in the "2009 internet April fools day". Another is this tweet I retweeted a long time ago, https://twitter.com/Wolfire/status/13804312082 a small piece of history when the first Humble Indie Bundle hit $1 million, I was there for that. Another example is the comments on reddit I made about SOPA, that is now part of history. These "Internet Achievements" are fun to look at and remember back when those things happen, and are fun to show off too. It would be cool to explore this concept in with a website that records these events.
