About this extension
Dead pages, broken links, the scourge of the internet. Powerhouse sites like Slashdot and Digg can bring a server to its knees. What do we do when a page is dead but we still want to see it? Call in the clerics, and perform a resurrection ceremony! Or, the easier route, use this extension.
Features

Searches through five big page cache/mirrors:
o Google Cache
o The Internet Archive
o WebCite
o archive.is

Of course, not every page can be in every cache. When a page is unavailable, you'll generally see that site's error page. Hit back and try another one!
* Accessible:
o In the context (right-click) menu for the current page, and for all links.
o In the toolbar, just customize it to drag the button in.
o With the keyboard: press Ctrl-Shift-U

Developer comments
Yes, it's far from the first extension to offer such a feature. I've found, though, that the others are either broken, bloated, or hard to use.
