Please mark your calendars and join us for the next Content Working Group meeting, December 3rd at 11am ET.

Edward McCain will join us to talk about the recent event held at RJI, Dodging the Memory Hole: Saving Born Digital News Content (http://www.rjionline.org/events/memoryhole). He'll be joined by some other NDSA members who attended and they'll report out on the event and discuss ideas about how CWG can work together on born digital news preservation.

We'll also have a presentation from Ben Welsh, who h is a database producer at the Los Angeles Times and the creator of PastPages, an archive dedicated to the preservation of online news.
Ben attended the RJI event and presented about StoryTracker, and will reprise his presentation for our meeting. StoryTracker is a new set of open source tools aimed at analyzing the stories that appear on news homepages. In this brief talk, Ben will show its key features and demonstrate how it could be useful in other efforts to save and scrutinize the Web.
