Could you recover material from a floppy disk or VHS tape? I co-teach an online course in digital preservation this spring that covers nitty-gritty stuff like forensics and checksums as well as Big Picture issues like preserving atoms v bits v experience.
We start 18 January--more at https://DigitalCuration.UMaine.edu

For a lesson on the web3 debate, I assigned the July 2022 essay "What To Say to Crypto Haters" https://decrypt.co/101448/laminate-this-what-to-say-to-crypto-haters to my @DigitCurator students.
Ryan Cassidy pointed out this excerpt didn't age well.
Can we build a decentralized Internet that doesn't depend on tech giants? Watch Microsoft researcher and RadicalxChange founder Glen Weyl argue for a web3 where trust comes from social ties in this interactive recording of Monday's webinar From Platforms to Protocols, organized by @DigitCurator.

Decentralized protocols like Mastodon help us wean off big tech platforms like Twitter and Meta. But can they defend the web against disinformation and hate without a policeman in charge?
We talk through options in this free webinar from @DigitCurator tomorrow at 11am Eastern https://blog.still-water.net/can-the-next-web-solve-the-internets-problems

Looks like Instagram has noticed @pixelfed and is trying to limit exposure
Imagine having billions of dollars and a history of doing everything you can to eliminate your competition
Everything that made them successful is now a detriment to the endemic shift in social media
People > Profits, sorry Mark 😎
If you care about the future of the web, join me Monday 21 November for the next @DigitCurator teleconference.

Hey New Yorkers--I'm in the city Saturday 13 April and happy to share a coffee or similar with fellow #digipres folks. (What's the Mastodon equivalent of "tweeps"? I hope it's not "poots.")

What do checksums, emulators, and DNA storage have in common? All taught in my online #digipres course this spring. Boy I have fun with this class. http://bit.ly/1hcnyHv
