Organization: Archive Team

BERJAYA

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.

The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.

This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.

Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.

The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

Miss Green, of GYB, arrives

Miss Green, my one of a kind art doll prize arrived! She came from the random selection during Grow Your Blog Party celebrations on CatieAn's blog, survived a bitterly cold journey which detached her valuable jewelry, and that will be attended to asap, before the Ds swipe it, and was very happy to end up in a warm house again, among the Dollivers. She brought her own greeting card, too.

BERJAYA

The Ds scrutinized her with care, decided she could stay because 1. she has her own clothes and won't want theirs 2. she's smaller than they are, no threat there and 3. she has high heels so now they all want them, too.

BERJAYA

And she decided that she could handle the Dollivers, and was interested in seeing her new surroundings.

Elton is not in evidence, having retreated, muttering darkly, to the music studio to figure out new piano selections designed to include this new person. It's always something. Or someone.

CatieAn, thank you so much, and for the card she brought with her! she's great, and really brightened up the current dismal weather for us all. And if you want to see the high jinks at CatieAn's blog, go here
