- Name George Oates
- Location San Francisco, United States
- Work Director, Open Library at Internet Archive
- About I worked at Flickr since before it was born. My favourite baby from there is called The Commons on Flickr. It’s a program I invented to increase access to public photography collections held in museums, libraries and archives around the world. See http://flickr.com/commons
Now I lead the Open Library project out of the Internet Archive. It’s an online, open, editable library catalog, and we’re trying to build a page on the web for every book ever published! http://openlibrary.org
