The Wayback Machine has gotten better at re-writing internal links. I'll see if, for links in future posts, I can find a Wayback link too. This probably won't work for this-very-morning links, but maybe after a few days I can revisit posts and update. If I remember.
I once thought of scripting a search for broken links, but sorting through blogger's internal web code is messy, and may not be robust against their changes.
Anyhow, as a demonstration: A vanished website a with couple of stories about Ranger training in Panama.
When I go back and repost I find that many pictures and links are no longer good, so I redo them or ignore them. I never thought of using the wayback machine.
ReplyDeleteEvidence, BTW, that the internet is not forever after all.
