Spending Time With Tech Specs

I have not been actively posting the during the last week, not because I haven't done much in the way of archiving, but because I've been more social than a/v archivist.

I'm still working on audio metadata technical locations for the metadata specs the archives decided on, and I have been getting some great questions on processing and preservation specifics from students. I've had some recent moving image archive questions, which have me digging through the current specs for moving image archiving (what has changed in the last few months?!). In my leisure time, I've been working on amateur website development for archivists, which I hope will be a big hit at the SAA conference. I've gotten some good responses on the new a/v website, which is really encouraging for my own web development goals. Unfortunately, I have not had too much leisure time because I have been using my organizational skills to move; I didn't even take the time to plug in my external drive and back up my computer this week!
