First of all, this month, we are going to launch an internal project to improve several of our harvests. The project will run until July. It includes several parts:
- improvement of the harvest of social networks (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram)
- experiments with Browsertrix within the framework of our next internal harvesting workshop in March.
- improvement of the press sites harvest
- setting up Podcast and TikTok harvests.

At the end of January, Wayback version 8.10.0 has been released. This new version includes the publication of our new virtual guided tour concerning Artificial Intelligence.
This guided tour is made up of 13 themes. The topics covered range from scientific and technical applications of AI to ethical issues, and include the link between AI and art or human sciences.
The sites presented in the guided tour were selected for the Artificial Intelligence harvest launched for the first time in December 2020, but there are also older captures, some of them dating from the early 2000s.
On this occasion, a homepage of the "Archives de l’internet" on the subject of artificial intelligence has been republished.

A new Video crawl is running since January 26th. We are harvesting 13 Youtube channels for an estimated size of 4,8 TB.

The .eus domain has been harvested for the first time. A broad crawl of the regional domain of Vasque Countries with over 13,000 domains and 730 GB. It is a milestone for us because for the first time we have managed to save all the Spanish domains: .es, .gal, .cat and .eus.

We continue to have problems when we want to harvest Twitter in general. We have tested lowering the number of objects to 5,000, but when we want to save in the same harvest many accounts, only the picture of the first ones accounts are saved, the rest only the text. We have not found a solution to this problem.

Since mid-January, we have detected a new error harvesting Twitter. When we want to save a hashtag, trendy topic or search we get a 404 error, even though they exist on the web. We think that Twitter has changed some security policy.
