The Internet Time Machine

Archive.org, the WaybackmachineI don’t think you could call that Web2.0 or even innovative, but still it’s probably the most awesome Internet website/service I have ever seen: Archive.org is a website and a database which keeps track of all the various versions of almost every website that ever populated the Internet. The so-called “Waybackmachine” can take you back to – for instance – the earliest versions of eBay. (see that version of January 1999 for instance). Unfortunately, it’s difficult to move back more than 6 years, but still it’s very impressive and useful too if you want to keep track of old content which has been wiped out of the Web. For my readers, I can also recommend the various versions of Visionarymarketing.com since 1998 (unfortunately, the earlier 1996 versions have not been stored)
