00:12 🔗 chronomex so who owns http://twitter.com/archiveteam anyway?
00:12 🔗 GLaDOS Jason, obviously!
00:12 🔗 chronomex the style doesn't quite jibe with him
00:13 🔗 GLaDOS <swebb> AKKuhn: .@archiveteam, assemble! http://t.co/WCuxZOgJQ5 [less than one minute ago] <swebb> AKKuhn: .@archiveteam URL format: http://www.storylane.com/stories/show/##########/ - not sequential, 404's out when not a story [one minute ago]
00:20 🔗 alard GLaDOS: On it. :) http://tracker.archiveteam.org/storylane/
00:20 🔗 GLaDOS Ah

00:55 🔗 akkuhn well played.
00:55 🔗 akkuhn *slowclap*
02:56 🔗 akkuhn http://www.forbes.com/sites/jeffbercovici/2013/02/08/aol-earnings-revenue-turns-positive-but-patch-disappoints/
02:56 🔗 akkuhn throwing it out there for planning purposes - these hyperlocal news sites are getting axed/shutting down at an increasing rate: http://www.bizjournals.com/boston/blog/mass_roundup/2013/03/daily-voice-shuts-down-town-news-sites.html + http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/07/everyblock-shut-down-nbc-_n_2639378.html and the writing has been on the wall for patch.com for over 2 years now.
02:57 🔗 akkuhn a pre-emptive grab of patch.com (yeah, EVERY patch.com subsite) may not be a bad idea.
02:59 🔗 akkuhn NBC axed everyblock with absolutely no warning/lead time.
05:18 🔗 GLaDOS #archiveteam-twitter is so useful
05:18 🔗 GLaDOS https://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/imc-tech/2013-March/0308-mz.html Someone tweeted about this.
05:19 🔗 GLaDOS Been down for weeks.
05:25 🔗 S[h]O[r]T what in the world is it
05:28 🔗 GLaDOS No idea.
07:21 🔗 DFJustin it's like an independent journalism site, stuff that the mainstream news doesn't cover
08:26 🔗 godane i'm getting blog.everyblock.com
08:28 🔗 omf_ S[h]O[r]T, did that nytimes search against bitly turn anything up
08:34 🔗 godane http://archive.org/details/blog.everyblock.com-20130309-mirror
08:34 🔗 godane there was not much there
08:41 🔗 godane uploaded: http://archive.org/details/forums.g4tv.com-10-Site-Stuff-20130223
08:50 🔗 godane uploaded: http://archive.org/details/forums.g4tv.com-102-Playstation-3-20130219

09:40 🔗 godane uploaded: http://archive.org/details/forums.g4tv.com-106-Nintendo-DS-20130219
11:28 🔗 omf_ I posted the code to the minimal mailman scraper I wrote https://github.com/kimmel/at-mailman-scraper
11:29 🔗 omf_ I used that to get all the opensolaris mail archives
11:48 🔗 ersi alard: Hm, going to make a few fixes to export-punchfork.py and then I'll be able to download those last few I think
13:00 🔗 godane i have hello kitty tv ad
13:03 🔗 GLaDOS ...why?
13:03 🔗 omf_ keep it
13:03 🔗 omf_ keep it ALL
13:04 🔗 omf_ GLaDOS, for a valid reason. The commerical shows a snapshot of marketing to a specific demographic in the pop culture at a specific point in time
13:04 🔗 GLaDOS Ah
13:04 🔗 omf_ Watching old tv ads can really change your perception of the past
13:05 🔗 omf_ Now that studying pop culture is being taken more seriously academically they are rushing out to find resources
13:10 🔗 godane also its 1.5mb
13:11 🔗 omf_ How long is it? 30 sec?
13:11 🔗 godane its part of the g4 video dump
13:11 🔗 godane 21
13:12 🔗 omf_ See they are not supposed to do that. If you look into buy ads on a network they do it in 15 second intervals
13:13 🔗 omf_ I know tons of pop culture trivia. It is one of my favorite pass times.
13:19 🔗 godane i'm grabing the attack of the show blog
15:30 🔗 godane omf_: Hello Kitty: Big City Dreams TV Spot: https://archive.org/details/g4tv.com-video35019
16:31 🔗 godane i just grabed m.g4tv.com
17:14 🔗 godane looks like i'm almost done with my attack of the show blog dump
17:15 🔗 godane i see the index pages that add to the end of my new index with all direct links to posts
17:16 🔗 brayden wow
17:16 🔗 brayden You're still at it?
17:23 🔗 godane https://www.youtube.com/user/jasonscottrealestate
22:53 🔗 SketchCow SO OBVIOUSLY I BETTER MAKE THE CAPTCHAS ON ARCHIVETEAM.ORG BETTER ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE AYE
22:54 🔗 SketchCow chronomex: I own it and I should be sharing it with a few of you
22:54 🔗 chronomex ayeaye
22:56 🔗 illunatic SketchCow: how about an off-screen field that must be left blank?
22:56 🔗 illunatic or similar
22:58 🔗 illunatic ayeaye
22:58 🔗 illunatic is it automated spam or human?
22:59 🔗 chronomex automated, I'd say
23:20 🔗 alard SketchCow: Didn't you set up that Fatnest twitter-sharing-thing earlier? I just tried to tweet a link to http://archive.org/download/archiveteam_weblognl-index/ using that, but either I did something wrong or it didn't work.
23:24 🔗 chronomex watnest
23:24 🔗 chronomex how about a shared password, that seems to work with reasonably cohesive groups
23:26 🔗 Smiley Well, does anyone edit the wiki and NOT come here?
23:41 🔗 SketchCow I didn't properly set it up
23:41 🔗 SketchCow I found it sucked
23:41 🔗 SketchCow Shared password is likely.
23:42 🔗 RubyDo Hello Archive Team members, I am a student and my project is about archive team
23:42 🔗 soultcer Interesting
23:43 🔗 ersi Cool, RubyDo.
23:43 🔗 RubyDo Thanks :)
23:44 🔗 RubyDo I am looking for a larger screenshot of Warrior
23:44 🔗 RubyDo the screenshot you have is very small
23:45 🔗 RubyDo can you please send me one on rababkhamis@hotmail.com?
23:46 🔗 Smiley run a warrior and take a screenshot of it?
23:46 🔗 Smiley AMusingly I can't connect to mine atm :(
23:48 🔗 RubyDo Thanks Jason sent me one :)
23:49 🔗 RubyDo Also a question... all the archived projects stored on Internet Archive?
23:49 🔗 soultcer Most of them, yes
23:50 🔗 ersi It's worth mentioning/noting that we're not part of the Internet Archive though.
23:50 🔗 RubyDo ok
23:51 🔗 RubyDo I read a message on the wiki saying that you are no more affiliated with them
23:51 🔗 RubyDo what does this mean in terms of storing sites on their servers?
23:52 🔗 soultcer Archive.org and ArchiveTeam are two separate entities. We sometimes work together and some people are members/employees of both, but legally there is no connection
23:53 🔗 RubyDo ok
23:54 🔗 RubyDo regarding the archiving process, I have some questions
23:54 🔗 RubyDo 1- how do you know if a website will be discontinued?
23:55 🔗 Smiley they publish saying so, some times, if we are lucky
23:55 🔗 Smiley some times you'll notice maybe they just start not being so active anymore, or maybe the website becomes unstable.
23:55 🔗 SketchCow I sent you screenshots.
23:56 🔗 SketchCow Good.
23:56 🔗 RubyDo Thanks ShetchCow, I received your email
23:57 🔗 RubyDo Thanks Smiley
23:58 🔗 RubyDo 2- How do you evaluate which website to archive?
23:58 🔗 Smiley Hmmmm, anything we feel needs grabbing?
23:58 🔗 RubyDo ok
23:58 🔗 Smiley btw RubyDo no one here, other than maybe SketchCow talks offically for ArchiveTeam afaik
23:58 🔗 Smiley These are my own opinions.
23:59 🔗 Smiley However I'll do my best to give you what I feel is teh true nature of ArchiveTeam.
23:59 🔗 RubyDo sure
23:59 🔗 RubyDo Thanks
23:59 🔗 RubyDo Do you add metadata on archived website?
