Yes, I was simply pointing out an area of concern, as I've been quite surprised that these issues are coming up at all - probably just shows my ignorance of the complexities of HTML5 and/or JavaScript standards. So checking if you can access your archive every year, would be a good > idea. I personally check mine at least every 3 years. > It's just an other file format, but imo doesn't solve the long > term accessibility problem, because data needs to be stored on a media > eg: CD and there you also have an accessibility problem. ..... > Good points, reminders there are no single-solution magic bullets. . . But I don't think plain text, including CSV as a file format will become difficult to work with for at least a few more generations, probably "never" IMO. Regarding physical data storage, all but my multi-media files are small enough that they just stay with me, as standard hard drive sizes keep expanding faster than I can fill them with content - as long as I'm vigilant about moving my multi-media stuff offline, and I do transfer over to new optical discs, deciding what to keep and what to chuck every 2-3 years. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
