Editor's Notes
- #7: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Forum_Romanum_Rom.jpg “…access to a digital memory bank, full of digital versions of all sorts of things, would be a way to make everyone a citizen of the digital age. It might also be the only way to get to preserve the past and make it accessible.” Just as a Roman Forum was the centre of cultural life for the Romans so we need to forge out an equivalent ‘centre of culture’ for the digital world.
- #8: The world's first known movable-type system for printing was created in China around 1040 A.D. by Bi Sheng (990–1051) during the Song Dynasty;[1] following that, the first metal movable-type system for printing was made in Korea during the Goryeo Dynasty (around 1230). This led to the printing of the Jikji in 1377—today the oldest extant movable metal print book. The diffusion of both movable-type systems was, however, limited:[2] They were expensive, and required an enormous amount of labour involved in manipulating the thousands of ceramic tablets, or in the case of Korea, metal tablets required for the extensive Asian alphabets, having thousands of characters.

- #13: “The initiative offers the BBC and its partners a way of thinking about how to take material that exists in digital form, from television programmes to scanned texts to 3-D models of objects in museums, and make it available to the wider public in a way that will support the aspirations of many different organisations with many different missions.”
