Chris Coyier ☛ Combined Messaging Apps
I tried out Beeper a few months back. The whole point is that it’s just one app that combines your inboxes from lots of other apps. For me, that would be: Messages, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Instagram, and a sprinkle of Singnal and Facebook Messager once in a while. I can’t remember the entire list of apps they support, but they are in the business of supporting as many as possible.

David Rosenthal ☛ NDSA Sustainability Excellence Award
2023 marks a significant date for the LOCKSS Program: It is the twenty-fifth anniversary of the friendly hikes in Joseph Grant State Park and Big Basin where Victoria Reich and Dr. David S.R.[sic] Rosenthal first conceived of LOCKSS, “lots of copies keeps stuff safe,” as a guiding principle for long-term access and preservation to digital library resources. It is also the twentieth anniversary of the transition of the LOCKSS project from beta testing in 2002 to full production release. In the words of the duo’s nominator, “Even if you don’t know David Rosenthal and Vicky Reich by name, you’ve almost certainly heard their rallying cry for digital preservation: Lots Of Copies Keep Stuff Safe. This ethos has informed digital preservation best practices since its introduction, and has shaped the design and implementation of the LOCKSS open-source software.”
