Saying goodbye to websites - Murray S
https://missyou.rip/
This site is a collection of "I miss you" letters to websites that have gone away. We often think that "the web never forgets", but at the same time it's not hard to think of sites that have gone away. It's important to remember that these sites aren't just a step on the incredible journey of the startup founders, but they can mean a lot to the users. When you shut something down, it's worth thinking about how you do it, and what, if anything, you can leave as an artefact for those users. The gold standard to me, is what ThisIsMyJam did - a static archive of everything.
