Is this possible? There are millions of Dead pages, broken links across the internet. Some of them were extremely useful also. Because of some reason many of the good and useful web pages has been removed from the internet or changed the location without proper redirect. This results in dead pages and broken links.
But is there any possibility of getting them from somewhere? There are many different services which collect portions of the World Wide Web and ensuring the collection is preserved in an archive. The largest web archiving organization is the Internet Archive (www.archive.org) which excels to maintain an archive of the entire Web. Sometimes it is also referred as the Wayback Machine. Internet Archive is a member of IIPC (International Internet Preservation Consortium).
There are many other services which archive websites and other internet resources. Some of the big names include Gigablast, WebCite etc.
The major search engines including Google, Bing and Yahoo also caches archives of web pages and websites. Google Cache, Yahoo! Cache and MSN Cache are examples.
