Internet Archive and Preserving WordPress Blogs

The Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine has been serving archived versions of blogs for years, but only now are we starting to work directly with Automattic, the makers of WordPress.com, and now hopefully the community to make sure these blogs are accurately and enduringly saved.

This talk will cover how the Internet Archive is attempting to provide universal access to all knowledge by working with communities that have been digitizing, organizing, and serving books music and video for years. Hopefully the ensuing discussion will lead to new ideas on how the Internet Archive can help the WordPress communities and how the WordPress communities can bring even more rich resources to a world that is increasingly turning to the web as its library.
