Thanks to my On This Day page (thanks to Alan for that), II find my review of 2006:
One of the things I like about blogging is how posts disappear into the archive to be forgotten.

Lots of broken links some of which I’ve fixed. Led me down rabbit hole of old posts.

@johnjohnston I hear ya about the dead links. It’s almost like the places you used to visit almost daily are now abandoned and derelict.
@pratik @johnjohnston I had the same when I went spelunking in the Wayback Machine the other day for an old blog of mine. Most of the blogroll was deadwood.
@AlanRalph @pratik yup, I try and fix a few now and again, but entropy is winning. I do have a plugin “Post Archival in the Internet Archive” but the link for the site for the plugin is broken!
I also use Amber which preserves anything you link to on the Internet Archive.
