URL harvesting
Let's follow Site exploration.
<polm> One thing I would recommend is searching Hatena Bookmarks, which is like a Japanese free Pinboard <polm> Like so: http://b.hatena.ne.jp/entrylist?url=homepage2.nifty.com <polm> the "of" query parameter paginates like so: http://b.hatena.ne.jp/entrylist?url=homepage2.nifty.com&of=20 <zout> there's some here. https://archive.is/homepage2.nifty.com
