[sf-lug] Google Reader data saving w/ ArchiveTeam; users, programmers and tech company employees needed; Deadline July 1st

[Will]

By the way, the resulting data will be available at the Internet Archive (
https://archive.org ) (in big archive files called 'warc' files here:
http://archive.org/details/archiveteam_greader) and the operation is part
of the ArchiveTeam which is a volunteer org that quickly downloads sites
that are going down soon.
