A long time ago there was someone (ex-Bell?) who was offering a  
timestamping service; IIRC documents and metadata were securely  
hashed, and these hashes then hashed, until finally the daily root  
hash was published as a classified ad in the New York Times (yes,  
back when newspapers existed and still printed classified ads :-)
