The resignation academics feel when the calendar changes to “August” and you have to admit to yourself that most (all?) of your summer writing goals are not going to happen…

Webb is on a roll! 🤸 This new @NASAWebb near and mid-infrared composite image highlights the Cartwheel Galaxy, the result of a high-speed collision that occurred about 440 million years ago, along with two neighboring galaxies. Get the details: go.nasa.gov/3OSNteh

This is a great discussion on parsing WARCs.
I got sucked into the black hole that is format identification in WARC files today and I really need to warn people to just stay away if possible.

Interesting work from @ShawnMJones from @WebSciDL at #JCDL2021 regarding using social cards with web archives. However, one standout aspect is how he formatted his presentation -- not just a floating head over slides but embedded branding. 👇 is his rec. video being played. 🤯
