Social media web archiving 3/3
Additionally it would be helpful to process these feeds again and record author, date and post in a database.
I'd appreciate pointers to forums, chats, mailing-lists where this is discussed...
I suspect that the webarchiving and digital preservation community could (and should?) take inspiration from the scraping scripts of the tech industry, on Github I saw some of those tailored at extracting content from feeds.
One thing I am wondering with current web archiving: are there any new approaches for how to deal with social media content?
I mean this problem:
Platforms are full of scripts. We use automated browsing to trigger those scripts and record them in a format to replay them. ( #webrecorder #browsertrix etc.). Which makes sense from a historian's point of view, you record the info in its media format. But often the scripts don't replay, we don't see the content.

Google’s shortened goo.gl links will stop working next month
https://www.theverge.com/news/713125/google-url-shortener-links-shutdown-deadline
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_URL_Shortener
I cannot say if it is a trusted source. Here, they say that 3.6 billion URLs have been shortened. https://dub.co/blog/googl-links
A single small server could have served as an HTTP redirector, for lifetime.
Nice job, Google!
