Webmonkey Closes its Doors

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the thanks-for-all-the-fish dept.

An anonymous reader writes "According to Wired, Webmonkey is being closed by TerraLycos after 8 years of teaching practical web building skills and bucking more traditional outlets. They've written some good stuff over the years - in fact, I first understood the significance of XML after reading one of their articles."

  1. How about releasing all the articles? by Little+Grey · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Or is this even possible? Could they just throw all the articles into a big zip file and release them for download?
    It would be a shame for them all to be lost, especially some of their articles on PHP and MySQL. Those helped a lot back when I was first learning.

  2. It's on the Internet Wayback Machine by eggboard · · Score: 1, Redundant

    You can just call up old articles by going to archive.org and entering the webmonkey.com URL. It's not efficient, but it seems to be there.
