Thanks. Does anyone know what approaches Japan, Korea, Indonesia, China, other countries around them, Brazil, Argentina, other Latin American countries, South Africa, other African countries, Egypt, and other Middle Eastern countries, or other networks, for example, are taking to archiving the WWW? Multiple, systematic worldwide Internet archiving approaches will add important diversity to this project, especially as the Information Technology revolution and Network Society develop.
