Move Over G-Dub, JFK's All Digital and S^#t

JFK Library in Boston, all digital and s#%t

The JFK library recently released thousands of digital copies of text, video and photographs on its website.  Covering the life and presidency of JFK, the collection has been the largest of its kind released.  A while back, I looked at how much digital crap the Bush administration generated over 8 years.  Well, here's some stuff you might actually want to look at from a respected president.

Who Knew G-Dub Could Type?

The George W. Bush presidential library archivist's have claimed that along with printed materials, the presidency also created nearly 80 terabytes of electronic media, including emails, photos, and other items.  How much is that?  Hold out your arms as far as they can reach.  More than that.  We are talking bigger-than-a-breadbox here people.  According to this article, the man sent 200 million emails in the 8 years he played this country like a harp from hell.  We can only conclude at least half of those were chain letters and photo-shopped pics of Al Gore's head on assorted people/animals he forwarded to Chaney.  To the brave archivists and archivistettes that have to sift through this garbage, I say "Good on ya.  Keep on Truckin."
