Agree. But it does really take more than few minutes.

When I cleaned the links on my Ada links page:

http://12000.org/my_notes/ada/original_web_page.htm

I record the time that the link was check to be valid,
and if the link is broken, search the net for where the
link gone (this takes time) so that to update it, and there
is no alternative link to be found, then remove it.

I remember it took me few long hrs to do the whole page.

I guess many are busy with work and family, not everyone
has time.

But your point is valid. I have the same experience. This reminds
me, I need to go check my Ada links now. I see I last validated
them in 2005 :)
