Badges for DH2014
by Daniel O'Donnell 30 Jun '14

Hi all, So I think if we are going to do this, we need to act: we'd need to find a supplier over the weekend and get them ordered. I looked into flags but I think in the end James was write and we should use ISO language codes or something: flags are too political and hard to source. We're thinking of a small sticker with something like "I can whisper in _________." If possible using Elika's design, but a) we want to keep the costs down and b) it has to stick on the nametags people will have (so it has to be small but readable. An alternative might be a button (i.e. with a pin) if those are cheap enough, easily sourced, and can be written on. Some practical questions: 1) Who's all going to Lausanne and hence able to bring things? It might make sense to source things close to that person (if somebody is able to arrange buttons or stickers, I can reimburse them up to let's say $300 CAD (about US$250)). 2) Are we being too cute with "whisper"? I was among those who liked it, but I wonder if "I speak," "I can interpret," or "I can share" might be more obvious. Ideas? -dan -- From my Ubuntu notebook Daniel Paul O'Donnell Professor of English University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Canada +1 403 393-2539

Announcements and call for positions
by Alex Gil 27 Jun '14

27 Jun '14

Dear all, I have some important announcements for the list. Dan O'Donnell, our elected chair, has had to stand down temporarily and has asked me to fill in the role of acting chair, which I have accepted. I look forward to representing our interest group until Dan can return, and I won't let you down. In the past couple of weeks, we have also worked hard to set up our executive board. Because I am acting chair, we have also decided to work with acting vice-chairs for the interim. Here is our board as of now: Alex Gil, Chair (acting) Barbara Bordalejo, Vice-Chair (acting) Øyvind Eide, Vice-Chair (acting) Elika Ortega, Secretary Elena Gonzalez-Blanco Domenico Fiormonte Dan O'Donnell We have decided that our second secretary should come from the general membership. If you would like to volunteer please let me know. We are also looking to staff the following positions: - An editorial committee responsible for the GO::DH website. - An organiser/organisers for planning conference and poster sessions. A webmaster right now is one of our biggest priority. If you want to help drive one of our most important platforms send me a line. This would be a great opportunity to get involved and help out. Looking forward to the work ahead this year! Best to all, Alex.

Hola amigxs, acabo de hacer una investigación (superficial) en buscadores como yahoo.com y Ask.com tratando de encontrar noticias publicadas en los años 1999 y 2000 en Internet y no pude encontrar nada, me viene a la mente la memoria histórica en el mundo digital hacia donde está y cómo se podrá investigar en la red sobre un suceso ocurrido años atras. Ustedes conocen algún sitio que tenga almacenado las noticias publicadas en esos años en sitios como yahoo y altavista que en esa fecha eran los más populares? Hey DH Crew! I just did some small research (tiny one) around yahoo.com and ask.com trying to find some relevant published news around year 1999, 2000 and 2001, saddly the result was cero. i have been thinking how can i do some research in digital world -about news, papers, etc- published in the last 10 years . does anyone know some place where i can find news, documents, pictures, who was in the front page of sites like yahoo.com and altavista, back in year 2000 and 2001 they was very popular...

Re: [globaloutlookDH-l] AroundDH in 80 Days is live
by Noiret, Serge 24 Jun '14

This is an interesting project Alex, thank you for doing it and promoting it! What struck me is that the web today needs -like when it first appeared in 1993- some disciplinary index of resources and projects, could we still say catalogues? Pioneer digital historian Lynn H. Nelson who created -and with full support by Tim Berners Lee- the World Wide Web Virtual Library History Central Catalogue (today still available as history of the web at vlib.iue.it) was right when he was looking in the ’90 for collaborators worldwide and would still be right that the web needs index of resources, Local Area Search Engines or portals/gateways presenting selected resources in a field. And mirroring the site, finding international volunteers, gathering websites on a common document was already an issue in the ’90. Technologies are changing, some basic needs towards information/documentation are remaining: for example at the European University Institute a portal selecting in OA digital primary sources for the history of Europe: EHPS - primary-sources.eui.eu is in a way presenting DH projects when dealing with the creation of digital primary sources. So we are missing projects like Intute closed in 2011 (http://www.intute.ac.uk/) and we should have added a global Intute in DH for informing about the field’s developments, a global WWW VL of DH projects, a place where crowdsourcing information worldwide. Search engines like Google aren’t bibliographies or selected lists of resources and aren’t informing disciplinary about projects. Google founds what you are looking for but is not structuring and presenting information in an intelligent way like archives and libraries do when they have the technology, the time and the staff to do so. Having access to a selection of DH projects worldwide as an embryo of a database of DH projects is extremely useful indeed and like you said, needs a real lot of work by many volunteers!

Launch of RIDE, a review journal for digital editions and resources
by Christiane Fritze 20 Jun '14

20 Jun '14

Dear all, The Institute for Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE) is happy to announce the launch of a new review journal, RIDE. We aim to make digital editions and resources more visible and to provide a forum in which expert peers can evaluate and discuss the efforts of digital editors in order to improve current practices and advance future developments. It will do so by asking its reviewers to pay attention not only to the traditional virtues and vices of any edition, but also to the evolving methodology and its technical implications. We would like to bring RIDE to the attention of GO:DH readers, as the first issue includes a review of a Portuguese digital edition (Leal Conselheiro). The most reviews of the first issue are written in German and are completed by an English abstract as well as a well strucutred factsheet of each reviewed digital edition. You can access all reviews at: http://ride.i-d-e.de You can find out more about the ideas behind RIDE, our methods and intentions, in the Editorial at: http://ride.i-d-e.de/about/editorial/ We are also looking for contributions (also in your preferred language with an English abstract). Please see: http://ride.i-d-e.de/reviewers/ With kind regards, Christiane -- Christiane Fritze Interdisciplinary Research Association Digital Humanities in Berlin Berlin Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities http://www.ifdhberlin.de mail: fritze(a)bbaw.de Institut für Dokumentologie und Editorik e.V. <http://www.i-d-e.de> Einstein-Zirkel Digital Humanities
