The average lifespan of a web page is 100 days, and the average lifespan of a website is only 2.7 years. Online content is often at greater risk than older analogue content. #ndf25

Strong #digipres themes in Cade Diehm's #NDF25 keynote address 'Who will remember us when the servers go dark'. One of my favourite quotes: "Every checksum you verify is a prayer the machine hasn’t lied to you”

Cade Diehm describing web information outages, like the Internet Archive this year, as "the real, reaching in and giving these systems amnesia". #ndf25

Also why #DigitalPreservation can be much more expensive than traditional analogue preservation

Hooooge shoutout to #REANNZ for providing coffee to us all at #ndf25 (Psst, just quietly, I'm checking how well video goes on BlueSky - note the steam rising 😋😍)
