Scenario: You have a document online, but the online source has vanished, whether by server crash or perhaps having a hacked website. If you’ve recently visited your site on your machine with your browser, you may have a copy of your images and pages still inside your computer, in an often-hidden folder called your browser [...]

http://www.archive.org/web/web.php Place your desired domain name in the search box and click “Take Me Back!” The dates that show up are linked to a cache of that domain at that particular time and space. (It’s always humbling to look back upon one’s early coding skills, for instance) This’ll be very text-only unless the same images [...]

Some folks have lost some data recently, and would like to get it back. There’s some small hope — Google.com will create a cached version of the various pages it visits, and you can often find your missing web pages here! Step 1 Go to google.com, and in the search box, type the domain name [...]

It’s 9:14 am, and the company hosting the old (crashing) server have still not made it possible for me to re-set the most urgent accounts. (If I could get access, I could at least arrange it so we could all get our email until the swap sets in.) My, I’m annoyed. And to you, I’m [...]

Bad news. Worst news. After running me in circles for two days, my upstream provider has informed me that the server is dead, and all backups are gone.
