[Ggcs-presentations] Fw: Re: Re GGCS Presentations Email List

[B. Bloch]

I'm working with John Gonzalez on the GM Announcement of his talk on the Internet Archive. Below is his first draft of what he'd cover.  It's not a detailed outline, but an overview of the talk.  I'll be working on it Tuesday or Wednesday and plan to run what I do by him. Let me know if there is anything we want him to add in the description, etc. Babette

No problem.  Can I send some proposed copy, and then you let me know of we still need to talk on Wednesday morning?
 I was thinking something along the lines of: Introduction to the Internet Archive!Please join us to find out more about the Internet Archive.  We scan and store about billions web URLs every week, and since 1996 have created a large collection of over 325 Billion complete web pages.  We make these available through the Wayback machine�but there is much more that we do. Come learn about what the Internet Archive is doing to store digital content of all types:  audio, movies, software, VR content, radio, and television.   This talk will be wide-ranging, touching on what we do (and why), how our content is used, the technologies we use to capture and keep over 40 Petabytes of content, and of course, a tour ot a small sampling of the fun and quirky content to be found in our collections.   -jcg John GonzalezDirector, Engineering and Service Availabilityjcg at archive.org On Mar 25, 2018, at 10:26 AM, B.

When you replied, your not being subscribed to that list caused your reply to be bounced and the ListServe coordinator sent Barbara and me a message not to have non members try to use the list address shown. I hadn't thought about any reply from you going to the List.  I'll be more careful to edit it out of messages I send you, and give you the Email address of the person who asked a question. However, if you really want or need to reach the whole Presentations Committee, you can address a message to present at ggcs.org Sorry about that mix up and hope the bounce message wasn't confusing.
