"sallyjacobs is one of the best stumblers out there... it's like she has a superpower that gives her the ability to sleuth up the nerdiest stuff on the Web. I'm going to make a fairly definitive statement here, and say that anyone who doesn't have an Internet crush on sallyjacobs, has no heart whatsoever. Do you hear me, Internet? No heart!" --mrvader2u.

Basically, I'm an archivist and all-around history geek. My Practical Archivist blog offers how-to advice about organizing and preserving your family treasures.

I'm also kinda obsessed with digital preservation, obsolete technology (especially audio), alternative energy and teotwawki.

As an introverted entrepreneur I keep an eye out for internet marketing advice that isn't slimy.">

From the page: "Aleks Kolkowski uses his vintage record cutter to 'overwrite' existing data and cut grooves on CDs/DVDs so they can be played on a turntable. Bring unwanted CDs/DVDs and a sound file and receive a recycled disc in return."
