The invention is an online social-networking site that enables users to form relationships based on shared life experiences while creating a valuable and easily accessible database of historical material. Unlike existing sites, which allow users to create digital albums that are then shared with friends and relatives, the subject site is a searchable communal archive that categorizes memories by event, time period, location, affiliation and other criteria. Rather than preserving individual memories in separate user accounts, the interface of the subject invention funnels those memories into networks and communities based on shared experience, weaving individual stories into a large repository of historically rich material.
