Does the Web remember too much - or too little?
Scott Rosenberg, Wordyard, July 26, 2010.

I agree with Scott Rosenberg - far from 'remembering everything', the web forgets things far too easily. That's why I created my site in the first place - to store stuff that I knew would disappear from discussion lists and bulletin boards. Don't believe me? Try to find anything I posted on my old NewsTrolls site (I can't give you a link because the domain was auctioned out from under me). That stuff - thousands of posts, hundreds of articles - now lives on only in my personal archive. And even that archive is incomplete, because we had an ISP that deleted content randomly when our disk space limit was reached. The web permanent? Not likely. Via Tom Hoffman.
