Phaistos Networks partner in BlogForever

BlogForever is a collaborative EU funded project. Its key objective is to develop robust digital preservation, management and dissemination facilities for weblogs. These facilities will be able to capture the dynamic and continuously evolving nature of weblogs, their network and social structure, and the exchange of concepts and ideas that they foster; pieces of information omitted by current web archiving methods and solutions.

Phaistos Networks contributes to the project as a partner which represents the bloggers community. Its main role is to contribute specifying the user requirements from the perspective of the community it belongs to, leading a case study of various weblogs containing multimedia content (images, audio, and video) during the first round of the platform development and contribute to the dissemination activities.
