Web Archive of the Sept 11 Attack - Update
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---
The Internet Archive in collaboration with Alexa Internet, and SUNY, Library
of Congress and UWashington is archiving pages and sites relating to the
terrorist attacks in the NY and DC.
We'd like to draw your attention to some tools just developed that
facilitate this very important work: we have very quickly put together a
*very simple* site with some easy-to-use tools: http://webarchivist.org.
If you're interested, visit http://www.webarchivist.org, and follow the
(hopefully) simple directions. What we ask is that you click on a special
link (that you install on your browser) whenever you visit a site that you
think should be archived. Clicking on the link alerts our system to archive
that site that day.
If you're up for it, you can also get a tool that allows you to fill out a
3-question "site coding sheet", identifying the type of site producer, the
kinds of activities available on the site, and an open-ended assessment of
the site.
Of course, if you'd rather, continue to send lists of links to
attackarchive@....
And, please, any comments or suggestions on how to identify relevant
sites -- send them along!
Thanks,
