And this is Hitting the Wayback Machine, written , and concerning Web, Howtos
I find myself hitting 404ed pages all the time, and wanting to look the pages up in the Wayback Machine to see what they said when they existed. So, a quick bookmarklet: Get archived version. Drag to your bookmarks bar and click when you hit a 404.

I'm currently using https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/318/
(but then I don't dig bookmarklets...)
Among others, this one works great and encapsulates a few options https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2570/
Nice.
