A line chart showing that 38% of webpages from 2013 are no longer accessible.

LINK ROT: 38% webpages that existed in 2013 are no longer available today

Even among pages that existed in 2021, 22% were no longer accessible just two years later. This is often because individual page was deleted or removed on otherwise functional website.

Many implications for knowledge πŸ§ͺ

Thinking of Klaus after just finding this photo of him and George Gerbner in a folder. I have a funny Klaus story but not the space to tell it.
