Top-level

@Preuk Interesting modalities. Automatic collection, but no public access. That is a way to protect yourself from lawsuits, for sure. I wonder how they decide on “domiciled in France” – by top level domain? I used to be a French citizen until about 2007. Did they archive my pages? Did they remove the archives? I never used the .fr top-level domain. Also, almost none of my pages are in French. But that doesn’t seem to be a requirement. I wonder if Switzerland has a similar program.

@Preuk I just found the Swiss Web Archive! But I assume only people of interest will get added, not ordinary citizens.

“The Web Archive Switzerland collection is being built up in partnership with the Swiss cantonal libraries and other interested institutions. The identification of websites and their preliminary indexing is carried out by the partner institutions. The NL is responsible for collecting the selected websites, listing them in Helveticat, archiving them and making them available.”

@alex long-term blogs *are* valuable as historic chronicles.

In french but awesome:
bnf.fr/fr/la-bibliotheque-nati

To sum it up: they archived a free blogging platform heavily used by french teens in 2000's
