He got a week extension on the 21st....no update since...
I've been thinking on this actually before this potential loss of HF when I've had to look up something Haley related. If you look far enough back, you will find that there's alot 'gone' from even this site, as well as what was posted on Idolforums.
Unlike books, digital posts only last as long as there's some server that's still hosting it or someone is paying to keep it active. There's numerous photos that no longer exist in these pages, or videos for that matter, that are no longer viewable either due an account expiring or due to deletion... an example, remember when Haley chose Yahoo to debut "Show Me Your Moves"?....well, that video on Yahoo's aritcle about it, no longer exists, while the article still does (as long as Yahoo still exists):

It is a part of the 21st century that I don't think most of us are aware of until it's 'too late' into the future when we realise alot of 'knowledge' was lost due to it being recorded digitally. Even at a modest size as this page, it'd be quite an effort to 'save' as much knowledge as we can, so much info has been posted over the years....
You might say there are other pages that records Haley stuff...not as specific as we have, usually in a very cursory way, and not near as complete... alot of what they post there, they got from visiting HF and only pick and choose what they want to post
You might say, but pages in books eventually fade or disintegrate? This is true, but a book needs no power to work, you don't have plug it into anything and often there are multiple copies of a book....there's only one HF...
As sad as it might be to think on, if it doesn't happen soon, it will happen eventually
(ps...just had a thought, I posted alot of my adventures at HF...thought I should go save my re-telling of my
Carnegie Hall visit and
Lollapalooza since it's the only place I posted them
)
