Chumby.com is going away - Request for archiving. |
http://www.Chumby.com and their forums,
http://forum.chumby.com is likely going away in the future.
The company is shutting down.
The chumby is an internet terminal that was made by Sony, Chumby and Insignia (Bestbuy).
It requires backend servers which may be shut down this summer. It's open source, mostly.
There are widgets (apps) created by many developers to work on it.
There is so much valuable information for the future of this product on those sites and on the bestbuy site, which is
Http://insignia.chumby.com that it should be thoroughly archived for the future.
Is there a way to request that the internet archive do an especially thorough crawl of those forums and archive everything that is there, especially any software that has been posted so it will be available in the future?
Thanks!
