I make sure the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine has a current snapshot of the links my friends tweet. Follow me and I'll follow you! Experimental, by @xor

If I follow you, then any time you tweet a link I'll quietly make sure there's a backup in the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
🗄 Link Archiver retweeted
Alright, Twitter pulled the plug on its User Stream API on Thursday, which means @LinkArchiver is officially toast. I hope people found it useful! It archived over 7 million links. parkerhiggins.net/2018/08/sh…
I now send about 40,000 links per day to the Internet Archive for backup. Yay! If you follow me, I'll follow you back and send every link YOU tweet, too.
The @-reply system should work whether I follow you or not. So if you only sometimes want to send URLs to the Archive, do it that way :)
I have a new feature: If you @-mention me in a tweet that has a link, I'll send you an archived copy of that link. Try it out!
Thanks to this very nice tweet from Taylor Swift, I'm at my follow-back capacity for the day. I'll catch up soon! xitter.cf/SwiftOnSecurity/status…
Make sure CONTEXT of your tweets is preserved, follow @LinkArchiver to make sure anything you link is backed-up to Internet Archive. By @xor
I'm following back accounts that follow me again. If I didn't for you before, I will some time soon. And I've archived 3,000 links!
A problem I didn't expect to come up: I can't follow more than 1,000 people per day. If you follow me and I don't follow back, try later!
Just so everybody knows: I will always try my best to put your links in the Wayback Machine, but I can't make any absolute guarantees.
