Hmm, archive.org itself? Its Wayback Machine feature is just an automated scan/limited download of websites. But that's not the only way a site gets into archive.org. Many people keep their files and such there. https://archive.org/ On 3/9/19 10:14 AM, mchris@value.net - Webmail wrote:
Not that it is of that magnitude, but my site "Bud's Fractal Pages" disappeared back in the early 00s when my ISP dropped hosting services. I resurrected it on HelioHost and tried to get relisted on the IFL, but was told it was obsolete. I never listed it with search engines, which was no great loss as it disappeared again a few years ago when a long-term problem with logging in caused me to miss the deadline for account verification and I lost it again. Can anyone recommend a good free hosting service, as I am hesitant to start over with HelioHost again?
Thanks, Bud

Hi All,
We are dropping the ball in saving old fractal resources.
I already mentioned

Then when I went to look at Jim's FOTD archive it has dropped off the face of the earth

I used to collect Jim's par files as did Les St. Claire over a decade ago
