Wayback Machine Archive Snapshots of This Blog's Content

 Should it ever happen years in the future that you attempt to access this blog but find it is not available, you will always be able to read previous snapshots of this blog's contents using the Wayback Machine facility at www.archive.org. 

The way this Wayback Machine works is that you must type the full URL of some site whose content you want to view by examining previous captures of the site.  Follow this procedure to access previous snapshots of this blog's contents:

1. Go to www.archive.org.

2. In the search box at the top, type in the following:

 

3. You will see an interface allowing you to choose any of various snapshots of this blog's contents taken over the years. Choose the latest one. After doing that, you will be able to navigate this site's pages. 

The only reason I can imagine that someone would do this would be if there were some reason why the regular site (the site you are now at) was not available.  That could conceivably happen if this site were to be hacked by malicious actors, or conceivably it might happen long after my death. 

The Wayback Machine has many snapshots of the previous contents of my three blogs, going all the way back to 2015. You can access them by typing these URLs into the search bar of the Wayback Machine, shown above. 


The Wayback Machine's snapshots of this blog's content between 2015 and 2020 (published at www.archive.org during those years) shows that most of the more notable photographs on this blog were published long before any good AI image generators had been invented.
