[game_preservation] Google Shutting down Lively

[Henry Lowood]

Actually 4.5 months.  Did you see in the announcement that they are 
encouraging users to take screenshots and videos of their sites?  I 
would be happy to take anything like that in the Archiving Virtual 
Worlds collection, which is available for exactly this sort of thing.  
If you hear about such documentation, feel free to point them to the 
collection or even to me if they need help uploading.
