Hi,
My name is Jim Whitehead, and I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at
the University of California, Irvine. I heard from a friend that you have
appointed yourself oral history archivist of the Internet, and would like
to make available to you my own oral history archive of internet-related
materials. For the past two and a half years, in my spare time I co-hosted
a radio show called the Cyberspace Report (my other co-host is Lisa Covi,
another CS Ph.D. student), which aired on the campus radio station, KUCI.
The show had an interview format in which we would essentially ask
questions to get our guest talking with very little input from us as hosts.
A complete list of shows we have aired can be found off of the Cyberspace
Report web page, at URL .
Shows which I think might be of interest to you include interviews with Ted
Nelson (inventor of hypertext), Roy Fielding (first author on HTTP/1.x
specifications), Virginia Shea (author of Netiquette), an interivew with a
regular on alt.suicide.holiday, Daniel Bender (he runs Cupid's Network, a
free online dating resource), and Naomi Pierce (who works for Women's Wire,
a women-oriented online service). There may be other shows listed which
you might be interested in as well ... these are just the shows which have
the most direct relation to the Internet. You can sample a couple of shows
from the web page ... I think you'll find that while the audio quality
isn't stellar, the interview content itself is significantly better than
mainstream Internet coverage.
If you're interested, I'd like to figure out some way of getting you copies
of shows you're interested in ... perhaps we could do a tape swap?
