Copyright issues make that less easy than it ought to be, and it's
mostly pointless, as archive.org will recover your old links in 99% of
the cases. A link to a long, detailed explanation is *vastly* better
than a quickie summary posted inline.

In any case, using the above private API is a bad idea. This post
shows a way that uses only public APIs
