Oh, I was about to respond that links I referred to are returned by Google search for their respective article titles (it did so yesterday). So I went to verify this and just observed that Google started to return liks pointing to (supposedly) Scott Chacon's site, like
http://scottchacon.com/2011/07/11/reset.html
for the "Reset demystified" article. Hence I suppose Scott was just transferring those articles to their new home.
