Finding Long Lost Websites

By Michael Stelzner

Do you need to get access to a website that no longer exists?

Are you looking to understand the evolution of a company?

Introducing the WayBack Machine.

This cool service archives websites back for years.

For example, it has 100’s of iterations of one of my websites going back to 1997!

  • I have long been using this service. Set firefox plugin (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/...) - everything in sight!
  • Terri and Sam;

  • It is a cool service. I'd be very interested to know their stats on it, like how much space it takes to archive multiple versions of every site on the internet. I think they store images, too.

    Ok, the Wayback Machine is wayyyyy-cool! I found versions of a website I built and maintained for several years for a non-profit org. Trip back in time! Thanks Mike!
