Attribution Lacking

May 29, 2009

Revising the details, checking the facts, finding new archives: Those are what is most exciting for historians. Failing to give credit deliberately destroys the traces, leaving an error that serves as an axiom. It makes us grind our teeth.

In these days of Wikipedia and blogs, Facebook and Twitter, traces disappear faster than ever before. But ironically, Internet reproduction actually serves to reproduce the blackberries intact, and that makes them easier to find.
