The Deleted City: http://deletedcity.net/ " The Deleted City is a digital archaeology of the world wide web as it exploded into the 21st century. At that time the web was often described as an enormous digital library that you could visit or contribute to by building a home-page. The early citizens of the net (or netizens) took their netizenship serious, and built home-pages about themselves and subjects they were experts in. These pioneers found their brave new world at Geocities, a free web-hosting provider that was modelled after a city and where you could get a free "piece of land" to build your digital home in a certain neighbourhood based on the subject of your homepage. (...) Around the turn of the century, Geocities had tens of millions of "homesteaders" as the digital tenants were called and was bought by Yahoo! for three and a half billion dollars. Ten years later in 2009, as other metaphors of the internet (such as the social network) had taken over, and the homesteaders had left their properties vacant after migrating to Facebook, Geocities was shutdown and deleted. In an heroic effort to preserve 10 years of collaborative work by 35 million people, the Archive Team made a backup of the site just before it shut down. The resulting 650 Gigabyte bit-torrent file is the digital Pompeii that is the subject of an interactive excavation that allows you to wander through an episode of recent online history."

Second Life Dumpster:
"In Second Life each avatar has a trash folder. Items, that get deleted end up in that folder by default. The trash folder has to get emptied as often as possible, otherwise the avatars performance might diminish. But, where do deleted things end up? What are those things? And, would avatars care to throw their trash into dumpsters instead of just hitting the "delete" button?"

I'm Google:
""I’m Google" is an ongoing tumblr blog in which batches of images and videos that Kelberman culls from the internet are compiled into a long stream-of-consciousness. The batches move seamlessly from one subject to the next based on similarities in form, composition, color, and theme, resulting visually in a colorful grid that slowly changes as the viewer scrolls."

Has nothing to do with archiving but we had a discussion about how the value of art is established and Don Thompson gives some insight into how the economics of art works nowadays (also nice for Steves class).

Life logging
http://tegenlicht.vpro.nl/nieuws/2013/oktober/gordonbell.html (in Dutch)
Gordon Bell is since 1998 documenting and archiving his entire life - from registering phone calls to saving physiological/biometric data digitally. He also has a tiny camera hanging on his neck, which makes several photos automatically, on a daily basis.
He was one of the characters in the VPRO documentary 'Tech Mens', about 'tech-optimists', presented in Dutch television a few weeks ago. The documentary is mostly English spoken and can be seen here: http://tegenlicht.vpro.nl/afleveringen/2013-2014/TechMens.html
