Yesterday @USATODAY ran a fact check story about a fake Obama tweet screenshot being shared on social media. Author @SadeghiMckenzie could not find any mementos of this tweet in @internetarchive. #webarchiving

This is an example of one of the points @phonedude_mln and I made in a @WebSciDL blog post last weekend: screenshots of tweets can be faked. To prove existence, one needs to link to #webarchives. Even better if they link to #MultipleWebArchives.

And even better if they can use Robust Links to help readers find evidence of the tweet in #MultipleWebArchives.

Bigger bubbles = more content archived!
Pick a date from the calendar, like this one from 2000 and click around to see what was archived. Screenshot of an archived capture of the Library of Congress homepage from May 2000.

In addition to the excellent tools from the tweeted picture, there are many #webarchiving tools in development by @WebSciDL and the @LosAlamosNatLab Research Library Prototeam.

Ever wonder which archives have a capture of a given URL? What about for a specific time? Do you want to search multiple #webarchives at once?

The Memento TimeTravel service run by @LosAlamosNatLab uses the #Memento protocol for just that: timetravel.mementoweb.org

#webarchiving
From your own machine, MemGator, by @ibnesayeed and @machawk1, also allows one to search across #webarchives using the #Memento protocol.
