A proud achievement of my half-century IT career happened in 1996 consulting to the #UNDP toward the first published edition of the Humanity Development Library.
It seemed easy enough: "It can be fairly estimated that 1/3, or about 20 million pages of UN, and as much University and NGO material are very useful. Those 20 million pages useful UN publications probably contain about 50% of solutions for major World problems. This information must be released in digital format for non-profit redistribution in all countries."
also portable and accessible to all platforms, everywhere.
Happily, not only did the project live on, but thanks to @… our once-intractable problem of global delivery is now globally solved!
So, whether or not this is timely, I don't know, but should you need to suddenly rebuild some semblance of civilization from scratch…

I bought my first modem at a post-Christmas sale in December 1992, and spent a few shot months discovering BBS’s and the text-based net before getting Mosaic and discover WWW in 1993. It opened up a whole new world! https://mastodon.archive.org/@internetarchive/11565105…

Attached: 1 image Mosaic was the first web browser to hit the mainstream in 1993, built by NCSA at Illinois. 🌐 It integrated text, images, data, audio & video, sparking a web boom. Not the first browser, but the one that made the web usable for millions. Its legacy? Every browser since.

Chose que je me demande comment ce n’est pas encore intégré Š #InternetArchive :
1) le fait de pouvoir soumettre une demande de modification sur une page auteur, livre ou édition avec les ID détecté comme quand on les intègre sur #OpenLibrary
2) ou encore que les éditeurs puiss…
