Ask HN: How do you archive/cache full-page back-ups of your bookmarks
You've carefully curated bookmarks over the years.
This is a knowledge bank for you.
Then one day you click on one of the bookmarks, and you discover that the original page is gone, and instead, in its place, is an ad for GoDaddy.

Is there a way for me to archive/cache full-page backups of all my bookmarks? (In some smart way. I shouldn't have to go into each Bookmark and download each page individually.)
- dangrossman 13y agohttp://pinboard.in/ http://pinboard.in/ For $25/year, it'll scrape and save everything you bookmark, and you can view that copy even if the original site disappears.
- skram 13y agoInstapaper (http://www.instapaper.com/u http://www.instapaper.com/u) does for the actual article/page content but not the full page
- useyourloaf 13y agoEverNote w/ Web Clipper
- hackaflocka 13y agoWill it do it all automatically or does one have to clip web pages one by one?
- useyourloaf 13y agoAFAIK, you'd have to do them one-by-one. Automatically? As in periodically update your snapshots? Or scan through bookmarks.html and grab each page?
- hackaflocka 13y agoEither the latter, or the moment I save a bookmark it should archive a backup copy.
- bitcuration 13y agoI'm scrapping this page right now into pocket. If it's worth archiving, it goes to Evernote afterwords. The more important question is how I can archive to my home USB drive, aka personal cloud, with some ready to use page scrapping tool like Evernote's. This is my own knowledge graph, and I don't feel like pay anyone or rely on anyone else to maintain for me. Evernote and it's toolkit is almost everything I need, except it doesn't allow me to keep a backup on my own drive. When cloud becomes a obligation, it lost its charm.
