Hello friends!
This was sent to me and I figured I should definitely share it with all of you!
6th Annual Aaron Swartz Day & International Hackathon at the Internet Archive
I don’t know how I forgot to mention The Internet Archive in any of our meetings, especially considering the fact that they have been laying the foundation for traversing the digital-highway by providing a means of archiving websites, (over 279 billion) videos, news, books and texts (11 million) and tons more stuff, effectively leading the toward the same goal of a world where Access to Knowledge is (digitally) Universal.
I highly recommend you guys check it out as I am sure there are tons of things you will all find fascinating!
Thanks for sharing, Michael — this is great information! There’s also an interesting documentary on Aaron Schwartz (The Internet’s Own Boy) freely available on YouTube for those who are interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M85UvH0TRPc
