It seems the world is hell bent on it's own destruction.
Please stop the idiocy.
Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

Had a lovely visitation from the wonderful artist known as Angelica Kroeger the other weekend. How lovely that was - very lovely as it happens. I took the opportunity to 'do' a snap for the archives.
The wind blowing, the camera shaking, sheeps in the croft. Gooses on the crofts, the road was still.
I have been sketching recently. With a camera - you don't take me for an artist do you? I should have sketched digitally but I just can't bring myself to do that so here is one from the Bronica made in Bac Bird Box. I would tell you what the sketches are for but I have not made up my mind yet. Consider them photographic doodles.
A slightly out of focus snap of sheeps that Eve wandered into. Rather nice even if I do say so myself.
The weather has been bitterly cold so this almost summer clothing sported by Eve hasn't been enough. At least another two layers are required.
Had a lovely visitor for a few days from o'er the water. How nice that was. I took a snap of them too but I have yet to slosh that in developer and the like. When I do, you'll be the last to see it.
Two days in a row!
I'm back - possibly.
The weather is a bit orf at the mo. Rain wind hail and now snow and everything
After thankfully surviving a bad storm the other night we emerge to think about the time we went places. Even Durham
