Concerned that some post or page from the Invisible Man will go the way of all links?
Take a snapshot with The Wayback Machine, an archiving service.
I have the app, the Official Wayback Machine Extension, in my Chrome browser bar. That site has proved handy a number of times when pages that had bitten the dust were revived by the service.
Wayback Machine

I plan to take Wayback screenshots of pages on some of my other sites (see sidebar) when I am out of sorts and have nothing better to do. But, rather than wait for me, feel free to copy my (or anybody's) pages.
Here is an example of an archived page:

Note that the Wayback url contains the url of the original page. Even so, I recommend that you keep somewhere handy a list of Wayback url's to the pages you've mirrored.
I realize most of you are neither academics nor journalists, but it may still prove useful to be able to refer readers to pages that stand some chance of being around for a while.
