Jeffrey Zeldman shared this helpful tip for saving web pages to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine:
Typing https://t.co/R5w2bQZKWz in front of any URL saves that content in the Wayback Machine forever. Nasty tweet? Type https://t.co/R5w2bQZKWz in front of the URL, and archive it forever. Hat tip: @t.

I reference the Wayback Machine a lot, so requesting an archive of the current page by prepending the url with web.archive.org/save/ is wicked useful; but I figured I’d make it just a smidge easier by turning it into a bookmarklet.
Drag this bookmarklet to your bookmarks bar:
Once it’s there, you can click it to request an archive on the page/url you’re currently browsing.
Thanks again to Tantek and Zeldman for the tip. Please take, use, enjoy—hopefully this saves you some time. If you have any feedback or additional tweaks, feel free to share in the comments.
