(a) Are there other media forms (current or historical) where publishing content means that it is automatically scanned and archived by external aggregators (search spiders, Internet Archive, etc)?

Not automatic as such, but I've recently been contacted by the British Library as they're trying to create an archive of online material. They've sent me forms for me to sign, to say that I'm happy for them to archive it (and to agree that I hold the copyright). Emma -- Blog: http://userweb.port.ac.uk/~duke-wie/blog/
