Weekend Street/Reflections: February 2020

COLLECTED BY

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.

Qui Sommes Nous ? (Weekend Reflections # 544)

BERJAYA

Paris, France

What is she looking at? Who is he looking at? Qui sommes nous ? = Who are we?
Reflections, street photography, and a little something to ponder. :-)

I had a wonderful trip and had a great lunch in Paris with Arnaud aka Kwarkito.

Happy reflecting

I was in a hurry and accidentally took this picture. It worked out well. A reflection without even trying. :-)

See you next week!

Social Distortion (Weekend Reflections # 542)

BERJAYA

Vienna, Austria

I was trying to think of a title for this reflection but the only thing that came to mind was the name of my favorite band when I was in Jr. High School. :-)

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'll be back for Weekend Reflections on Feb 28 but the link is scheduled during my absence.

Jeanne d'Arc (Weekend Reflections # 541)

BERJAYA

Paris. France

It might look like Joan of Arc is going to crash into the chandelier but fear not because she's a reflection and the chandelier is on the other side of the window inside of a hotel. :-)

I'll be away for a couple of weeks but Weekend Reflections has been scheduled to post at the normal times.

Have a great weekend!
