Think of one point on a map. Someone is buried there, a stone carries the name, and if you want to see them, that is where you go. It is not the whole cemetery, just the one spot inside it. Two things live in that picture. Something finished lies there, and the place only stays cared for as long as people remember to come. When the word is used about websites, that same picture moves online.
可以想成地圖上的一個點。某個人埋在那裡，石碑上有名字，你要去看他就是去那裡。它不是整片墓園，是墓園裡的那一格。這個畫面裡有兩件事。一是那裡躺著已經結束的東西。二是要有人記得、有人來，那個地方才被照顧著。這兩件事後來被借去講網站：頁面還在，可是裡面早就停住了，也沒有人再走進去。
From the word’s history
The packet's source entry says the word is simply grave plus site, so it names the location of a grave. The web uses are a later figure of speech built on that picture, not a separate historical root.
packet 裡的來源條目寫著：這個字就是 grave 加 site，也就是「墳墓的那個地點」。講網站的用法是後來借這個畫面來比喻，不是另一條歷史來源。
