One more signal boost for a kickstarter project - Files that Last - digital archiving ebook

[hms42]

A couple of weeks ago, I posted about a kickstarter project that I want to see happen.   Filker Gary McGath is trying to get enough funds together to get a book on digital archiving published.  He is talking about ways to preserve your data, so that it WILL last for future generations.  


And from the previous post -

Gary McGath is writing a book on digital preservation.    It is
scheduled to be published as an ebook and is for the average user vs the
academic fields.

This
is one of those resources that I want to take advantage of and make
sure I am preserving tapes that I am converting in the best format
possible.  

Also, Gary's blog on the kickstarter project
including a song  about the project (day 8) in mp3 and lossless .wav
format for digital preservation -
