Javascript Hero: Change Computer History Forever
Found a cracking post by one Jason Scott (responsible for crazy and amazing textfiles.org) after discovering DiveIntoHTML5‘s Mark Pilgrim’s disappeared from the face of the Web.
I think it’s about time someone attempted something audacious with the petabytes of “weird” old (emphasis on old) data that the Internet still holds onto; perhaps someday he really will be poised to take over the world…
Anyone willing to catalogue The Internet and expect to get away with it deserves such praise!
To repeat: yes, Mark Pilgrim’s disappeared “in a puff of greasy black smoke and 404s 410s“.
