Jeff Ubois has just sent out the following announcement of 
availability of the videos from the recent Personal Digital Archiving 
meeting hosted at the Internet Archive. One talk that I found 
particularly provocative and highly reccomend is the one by Daniel 
Reetz (it's one up from the bottom of the list, just before my talk), 
but there were many others that were outstanding. The conference was 
heavily blogged, and Jeff has also provided pointers to some of these.

Several people have asked about next year. That's not settled yet, 
but the most likely thing is we'll meet again in February, 2011 at 
the Internet Archive.

There will be a weekend meeting about personal archives near 
Chartres, France next month (April 15-17). The discussion will be 
largely unstructured, and will focus on improvements to the Grazian 
Archive, and development of a design prize for personal archives. 
Please contact me at jeff@ubois.com if you are interested in 
attending. There is no charge to attend, but participants must cover 
their own travel costs.

The mailing list for personal digital archives is restarting, but 
requires a one click-opt in. Expect an invite soon, or visit

All the best,
