Hello, dear readers!

Thank you very much for subscribing! In this issue I'll tell you what's new in my projects in the last three months (yes, the newsletter is rare, but I hope to publish it more often in the future)

A series of articles about using the Archive.org CDX API

In January I posted some practical tutorials on getting data from the WayBack Machine using CDX API and analysing it with Google Sheet:

How to view the history of a social media profile name using the Archive.org CDX API. 4 steps guide

How to find out on what dates a web page was changed using archive.org CDX API. A simple seven-step guide

5 basic techniques for automating investigations using the Wayback Machine (archive.org)

The simplest guide to scraping with Google Sheets

These very short and simple articles will help you automate research of old versions of web pages of interest to you (e.g. company websites or people's social media profiles) and save a lot of time.

You can also read this article in addition to them:

I haven't done many threads lately as I've been concentrating on writing for Medium. In the future, I plan to do more of them, as they are good for promoting a Twitter account. I recommend doing threads for anyone who wants to speed up audience growing on Twitter.

New on Worldwide Osint Tools Map

These include new resources for the Balkan countries, a Startme page for Malaysia, a highly detailed map of Barcelona, an necrolog database for Canadians and much, much more.
