Archival

Via a commenter in a post at The Online Photographer, I learned that the folks at The Internet Archive are taking extraordinary steps to make sure as much of the content at Digital Photography Review is crawled and archived as possible.

That's a big deal, because DPReview is pretty much the definitive source for digital camera info going back to the days when a single megapixel was considered to be a really big deal.

I have no idea why Amazon, owner of more cloud storage space than almost anybody, decided that it wouldn't be cost-effective to archive the site themselves.
