How to find old content that has gone down with a site.... / myLot

I am posting this seperately so that those who might not see this information can go try it. 1. Go to Google and search your user name on that site and any key words that might bring you to that post. I used Jessalyn, bubblews, poems 2. at the right of the link that no longer works clicked "cache". This will open it up so you can nab, screenshot, whatever. Now my question is, how do I get google to get rid of the cache? Or I guess I can just rewrite a bunch of the post so it's not a copy.

This is good information to have. It should help a lot of people considering all the writing sites that have been taken down.

The cache trick isn't working. I did find my computer had saved HTML links that do open. Not every post as I saved a lot, but I found fair few I had forgotten about by searching my computer.

I am on a tablet and don't see the cache option. Instead of trouble shooting, I'll wait until I am at the library tomorrow. These are desktop instructions, correct?
