Field notes
The homepage frames entries around ownership and memory rather than specifications, with examples ranging from an iPod Classic to a ThinkPad X220. It says timelines can be assembled by pasting forum signatures, describing device history, uploading a screenshot, or adding items individually; users review import results before confirming. Dates may be approximate, and the page says entries are private by default, with profile sharing optional.
