Techrights Blog Archive and Word Analysis
Summary: Summing up almost 13 years of Techrights and making archival simpler just in case something bad happens some time in the future
IN LIGHT of Linux Journal's shutdown, which was sudden and announced in the middle of the summer holidays (may have been strategic timing), we’ve already published a list of Techrights blog URLs and our full Wiki as XML files (or compressed archive of them all). That’s not because we expect anything bad to happen; it’s just better to be prepared in advance rather than when it’s too late. I’ve poured my entire adult life into this site and the analysis/research it takes to write/run it. It’s good to have backups, including elsewhere. Mirroring does no harm, it improves overall resilience when things are decentralised. During the archiving process figosdev wrote some code that we have not published until today. It’s used to generate a keyword index with merges for similar ones. So for example, for the latter it comes up with (number of occurrences on the left):

There’s more code we’ve yet to share. Just needs more tidying up. We want everything to be open data, Free/libre software, Open Access etc. It takes time. █
