I'm glad to hear the website will stay up, for now.

This makes me wonder if there's a way to preserve websites indefinitely in ebook form. A small device that contains the entire history of a website, and is self-contained in the ebook. The device would obviously require power and the hardware could degrade, but this could be mitigated by making the hardware replaceable, or rather the content swappable across devices.

It seems like a middle ground between durability/portability (printed book) and usability/access (website).
