Remember in 2004 we all took for granted that as soon as something went online it could never be deleted fully?

I'm at the point that I save a copy of any sufficiently cool image I see online (for art inspo or even if it's just something that makes me happy) since I've lost pictures into the churning froth of twitter by itself after making the mistake of looking away for an hour.
