Abstract:
	Hi its Dave and Brendan! You’re gonna be in a great mood all day cause you’re gonna be digitally preserving your history. Now look here’s a photo album. One backup you got a disaster recovery plan, two backups and now we got geographical separation. And now look at this when you add a checksum, the more you do it the more archivally it gets. You don’t have to switch computers. Now, you love family records, you hate scanning. You know you hate scanning that’s why you don’t have any scans in your computer. Now watch this one button, scans! Now I love video too but what about those big files, at least throw it on top of the hard drive. You’re gonna change your computer habits. QuickTime, AVI, iPhone, 5 minutes,4 or 5 minutes, it's done. This thing, this digital preservation white paper looks boring. Stop having a boring backup, stop having a boring life. Add this hard drive, add this scanner, now you’re going to have a nice, personal archive. Look at this, you’re gonna have an exciting life now. Look here’s a old jpg. One click, you add the checksum, two clicks, you add the metadata. And what you can do is mix things together add the email and you’re gonna love this. You don’t have time to make an archive, look at this: archive-to-go. You’re gonna love my backups. Watch this: emails, documents, whatever you like. Click, so easy, one finger, if I can back it up with one finger you guys can do it with your whole hand. Kids can do it. You know what they charge at the hard drive store? A hundred dollar for a terabyte at the hard drive store. Add a couple thumbdrives if you want. Stop throwing your money away. You know, not only email, what about video? Took a cell phone video, look at that isn’t that beautiful on your hard drive. The reason you’re gonna backup away everyday is cause its so easy to archive. One, Two, and backs up like that. Now these other ones you see at the stores. Corruption gets on the files, all the drives have this. You can’t clean it! You can’t open this file up, it’s worthless! Forget about it. Alright life’s hard enough as it is without a hard drive. You don’t wanna cry anymore. Put the hard drive right there and look at this, you want a little bit of checksum, you don’t wanna drag out the command line. You hit it like this. Guys we’re gonna make America archived again. One backup at a time!
