10-17-08 Find Links to "Dead" Pages Here!

Every so often a great resource website "goes away" forever. Often this occurs because the webmaster loses interest or gets fed up dealing with all the hassles involved in running a website.

I have - through the Internet Archive's magical Wayback Machine - added working links to some of best of these deceased websites. When you do a search, you'll be able to spot Internet Archive website entries by the words Internet Archive at the end of the link's description. To see all the Internet Archive links in the FAQ do a search for wayback using the ALL category.

For those who have never heard of the "Wayback Machine", it is a reference to a device that Mr. Peabody created in a segment of the cartoon shows Rocky and His Friends and The Bullwinkle Show collectively known as The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. The Wayback Machine carried Mr Peabody and his "pet boy" Sherman back in time to explore notable famous people and events in a whacky fashion.

...and now you know the rest of the story.
