Happy turkey trottin! I hope you get a PR (Pie Record) today!

Federal agencies are posting banners on their websites accusing Democrats and the “Radical Left” for the government shutdown, using language that is partisan, disparaging, and contemptuous. Learn more in our most recent Highlights from the Change Log: envirodatagov.org/federal-agen...

Calling libraries, librarians and web archive enthusiasts! Here’s a guide on how to celebrate the 1 Trillion Web Pages archived since 1996 blog.archive.org/2025/10/07/c...

Public records, private view. I used to read behind a private shade, alone with ink, no footprints made. Now every page I try to see, demands I share my identity. Login to read, login to learn. Who’s reading me while I read? Whose ledger marks the page I turn?

A little proof of concept I've been working on, it's a version of Bluesky that you can run locally, even on your laptop, that pulls just the data you care about from the firehose, indexes it, and provides you an interface to view and interact with posts.

Should have guessed it: "Due to a lack of apportionment of funds, this website is currently unavailable." oversight.gov is where many reports and audits are collected for Inspectors General across the exec branch. It takes some digging in wayback to access reports. web.archive.org/web/20250000...

a KQED exclusive: the Internet Archive joins a network of federally recognized libraries that archive government records and make them accessible to the public. i wrote about how that affects Archive's legal challenges and what it means to be a library in the digital age www.kqed.org/news/1204942...

As more and more government information disappears, we're glad to see @archive.org (which has done so much already to preserve our online history) become an official Federal Depository Library! www.engadget.com/general/inte...

European policymakers should designate open-source frameworks like the AT Protocol, the foundation for Bluesky, as critical infrastructure and invest in developing social-media apps on them, argues Sebastian Vogelsang.
