I just wanted to share a (not so late) night rant with you.
In three days, the Italian web portal Libero.it is going to shut down thousands of early blogs that were originally created through the platform ItaliaOnline and later rebranded as Digilander.
I think this is a paradigmatic case of what we are going to experience more and more often in the near future. 1/

Entire archives of extremely important material will simply vanish.
And I see this as a process we will have to reckon with more and more frequently.
How much of the digital culture produced in the 1990s and 2000s will be lost in the next ten to twenty years?
