Hot on the heels...Tabula Rasa as we all know didn't do to well.<br>

Feb 28th is the death knell for it -

Yeah, certainly if I notice anything online, I'll post about it
here.Keep an eye out everyone!<br>
<br>
Defiantly, if it was longer running there'd be a better community and
it'd be easier to go out and email those sites for help regarding this.<br>
<br>
I very much doubt Google themselves would do much to help if contacted
- generally their "dead" things really, really stay dead (see their
Google Sync for Firefox, entirely binned, sigh), and they usually don't
release much for historians. Might be worth a shot though, on the off
hand :)<br>

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.<br>

That was fast! 6 months total. <br>
<br>
I hope the Virtual Worlds project can scrounge some things from it, the
actual world/platform/community might not be the best, but since it's
coming from Google, there must be some bits and pieces there. <br>
