I recently had to consult The Wayback Machine for a "missing" website, and it got me thinking about taking a more active part in archiving the useful parts of the interwebs.
Consider adding useful sites (including your own!) to the Wayback Machine / Internet Archive to ensure future access.
The Wayback Machine offers a Save Page Now option.
There is also a Chrome extension available and if you set up a keyboard shortcut (chrome://extensions/
shortcuts), you'll be able to archive sites very easily.
