If hackers spend enormous time to write SPAM and hack into my computer just
for the fun of it, (although now they found out they can have fun and make
money from it) won't people go in and alter presentations just to be jerks.

Hi Hugh,
The short answer is they could. The longer answer has several parts. First,
most wikis (including this one) support change tracking and reversion, so
should someone be a jerk and do that, the changes can be rolled back.
Second, I will be monitoring it quite closely to see how successful it is
and will be looking for changes like that. In fact, I have the wiki set to
email me with ANY changes made, including a comparison. Third, any changes
made are associated with a name or email address, and I could then ban such
a person and make them into quite the public pariah. Finally, and most
importantly for a project like this, my hope is that so many people will be
involved that if anyone changes anything YOU'll see it and fix it or let me
know.

What does a records manager need to
be capable of, technology wise, to manage the media, and digital
records that are spun off from the data center? ARMA had a number of
great presentations but what do we need to know today?

That's a longer question, and I may have a presentation for it later this
year, but right now if anyone else has one, I'd be happy to post it to the
wiki...and I know, Hugh, that you have a ton of great presentations to put
out there. :D

Phew, I thought you were talking about me?
If hackers spend enormous time to write SPAM and hack into my
computer just for the fun of it, (although now they found out they
can have fun and make money from it) won't people go in and alter
presentations just to be jerks.
Unless someone polices it, what is the value of something that may be
tampered with.
I am not being critical I am just new to wiki (unless you are
talking about those grass skirts they wear in Hawaii, Oh wait I don't
know anything about those either.)
I like the idea of having something we could all build on, as the
Listserv is good at that, and is similar to working on a Task Force
but is there a way to know that what is there, is what was originally
there? White Papers, Web Casts, Pod Casts and now Wiki's. Shoot I
can barely make the Conference Call feature work on my phone.
Plus who decides what the right answer is? We all have 20 ideas on
how many sheets of paper fit in a 1.2 cubic foot box and no one
believed me when I told them the number of square feet in a 1000
cubic feet archive is 10? So how do you make something this wide
open work?
But I have a great first topic. What does a records manager need to
be capable of, technology wise, to manage the media, and digital
records that are spun off from the data center? ARMA had a number of
great presentations but what do we need to know today?
