Anyway, I'm sorry if some people are reading this hastily written blog entry to seem like the archive is taking credit for the process of discovery being done by people. The phrase likely does not mean definitely and perhaps I should have used a different word when I wrote the entry. But the fact remains that the wayback machine is the only place you can see the image in the context of its original website, and that is only happening because the archive is doing such a general crawl. That's all I wanted to get across, all hail the wayback machine, have a great day.
- boustrophedon 2y agoThanks for writing the blogpost! I think it's perfectly valid as a fun demonstration of the utility of the wayback machine.
- cal85 2y agoI found the article very interesting and didn’t for one second feel the author was ‘taking credit’ in any way. A few unreasonable critics are a good signal that you wrote something that was widely read and enjoyed. They’re not representative, they just comment a lot.
