What has happened to diggerhistory.info?
|
We hear that Digger History,
the excellent website on Anzac topics, is offline temporarily at
www.diggerhistory.info
See below for details on how to
access archived (but slow-loading) pages.
10 May 2011 |
The Digger History website contains some excellent and well-illustrated material on a huge range of
Anzac topics. Its sub-title is "An unofficial history of the Australian and
New Zealand Armed Services".
YOU CAN STILL ACCESS THE ARCHIVED VERSION:
Fortunately, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine has saved some old
versions of diggerhistory.info but they are slow to load. The latest is just over two years old.
Digger History:
Master Index page - archived version
Then click the "Impatient?" link!
Then click the "Impatient?" link!
TIP:
If you know the url of the page you want (eg,
http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-battles/ww1/anzac/landing.htm) then it
is quicker to go to the page directly:
1. Go to this page: Internet Archive
Wayback Machine.
2. Paste the whole url in the "Take Me Back" box, replacing the "http://"
that is already there.
3. Choose "Classic" (because retrieval seems to be more reliable
using Classic). 4. Click "Take Me Back". 5. Choose the latest date. You
will need to wait, perhaps up to 6 or 7 minutes - or longer for a page with
a few photographs. The Internet Archive Wayback Machine works slowly
because its main function is storing web pages rather than being an
alternative way to explore a site.
