The third Dutch Obsidian meetup took place last Saturday. It was a lot of fun to see how others work in and manage their Obsidian Vault. I still need to process [Roy Scholten's Bildung blog](https://bildung.royscholten.nl/) where he writes about information visualization, design, and note-taking, his English translation of Johannes Schmidt's [Zettelkasten presentation](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1re3lYaALScZ49189XIGqUVjQlMPe9uOfLEyz8y7mJuE/edit#heading=h.ygj23kjvy5z), and [Harold Jarche's Personal Knowledge Management](https://jarche.com/pkm/) system---always great to get to know new things!

Unless it stops being your own. Van Gogh's sometimes very private letters to his brother were never meant for our prying eyes. The family even obfuscated quite a few of them to try and "clean them up" for the general public. Others, like Cicero, wrote letters to friends that were clearly also intended to be read by others, meant as wise lessons.

Wesley and Winnie Lim think about [how websites die](https://notebook.wesleyac.com/how-websites-die/) and [website graveyards](https://winnielim.org/journal/on-writing-to-exist-and-website-graveyards/). What becomes of them after we're gone? The same day I encountered those articles, Kristien stumbled upon a "_what happens to my digital identity when you die?_" article in a digital newspaper. It occurred to me that I should give this the attention it deserves, even though having to deal with it is kind of morbid.

Preserving web content never really left my mind ever since taking screenshots of old sites and putting them in [my personal museum](/post/2020/10/a-personal-journey-through-the-history-of-webdesign/). The Internet Archive's [Wayback Machine](https://web.archive.org/) is a wonderful tool that currently stores 748 billion webpage snapshots over time, including dozens of my own webdesign attempts, dating back to 2001. But that data is not in our hands.

In case you haven't noticed lately, the archivist within me has been flaring up again. The subject of a more robust analog journal is something I've been pondering since I encountered Jeff Huang's [Designing pages to last](/post/2022/10/should-we-build-our-own-wayback-machines/) mantra---although he meant _web_-pages, not physical things on paper such as a notebook or journal.

In [What Happens To My Digital Identity When I Die?](/post/2022/09/what-happens-to-my-digital-identity-when-i-die/), I thought about my data and what should become of it when I'm no longer here. I discovered then that not even my wife has access to many of my accounts and data, which was solved by drafting and printing out a document that's kept safe. That document also describes the current backup system and where to find what.
