As we previously noted, Kalev was originally scheduled to speak at the GigaOM Structure Data 2015 conference this week, along with a "who's who" of industry luminaries. With the sudden corporate shutdown of GigaOM, the fate of its vast and incredibly unique archive of news coverage spanning nearly a decade of Silicon Valley's greatest moments is in question, including some of the earliest coverage of Twitter.
Kalev worked with the Internet Archive's web team to ensure that the entire GigaOM archive has been archived and preserved for perpetuity, which even garnered a mention at SXSW! At the very least, this jewel of technology journalism will be preserved as a record of nearly a decade of innovation.
