Ghostarchive is a free-to-use archiving website designed to be fast and easy to use.
The process is simple: all one has to do is enter in the link of the page they would like to be archived, and Ghostarchive will store a snapshot of the website as it appeared at the time of archival. The snapshot will include any images and framed content. For some websites, videos are also saved.
There are two main archival replay systems: one is based on Webrecorder technology, which can execute scripts in a sandbox, allowing for "high-fidelity" snapshot replay. However, this "Webrecorder" technology makes use of Service Workers, which requires Javascript and an updated browser. You also need to be able to connect to the HTTPS version of the website.
For readers that choose to browse the web with Javascript disabled, use the HTTP version of the site, or use a browser that does not support Service Workers, an additional archival replay system is avaliable and can be accessed on any archived page. This "noscript" system does not rely on Javascript or any fancy web technologies. For the vast majority of sites, both replay systems work, but there are some sites that will only work with Webrecorder, and others that will only work with the "noscript" replay system.
Ghostarchive is in the process of adding support for the MementoWeb API. In the mean time, making direct web queries and scraping the result should suffice.
A webpage bookmarking and snapshotting service.

It's hard to say what all is in here, so poke around and see if anything looks good.
The Internet Archive is also aware of needing to back up this archive: https://archive.org/details/dreamlandbbs.com
Links on the web break all the time. There are really two problems:
- Link rot: Following a link yields a "404 Not Found" error message.
- Content drift: The content at the end of the link changes over time, possibly to the point where it loses all similarity with the originally linked content.
Robustifying your links addresses these problems. It increases the chances that links will lead to meaningful content, even long after they were put in place. The following three pieces of information robustify a link in a machine-actionable manner:
- The URI of the original resource.
- The URI of the snapshot.
- The date of linking.

This site is dedicated to preserving the history of early computer security digests and mailing lists, specifically those prior to the mid 1990's. This includes the Unix 'Security Mailing List', through to the Zardoz 'Security Digest' to the Core 'Security List', i.e. those preceeding BugTraq. These forums are a valuable insight into the embryonic development of the field of computer security, especially as it relates to the Internet, and the development of the Doctrine of Disclosure. Goes all the way back to the RTM worm in 1988 at the very least.
