Helping Archive the Internet

I have known internet archiving initiative by archive.org long ago, I thought they do it all by themselves. Turns out, they do also open contributor to join the archiving efforts– I should have known better that it does indeed require massive collective effort

One thing that caught my interest is about ArchiveTeam Warrior. It is a bundled application, where you can participate and helps the archiving initiative. The application will automatically download sites and directly upload them to archive.org. The full information about the ArchiveTeam Warrior can be seen here.

Since I still have some resources on my VPS, why not I maximize its usage by running the application. So I have been run it likes a couple of month ago, IIRC. Letting it run and pretty much I did not have to monitor nor maintain the application. It just run and archiving automatically.

If you have some leftover computing and bandwidth resources and want to put them to good use, joining and participating in the ArchiveTeam Warrior is a great thing to do.
