Subject: RE: BS: Internet Archive Website From: Mark Clark Date: 14 Feb 02 - 05:12 PM Geoff, I noticed your post in the other thread and enjoyed it very much. I had a post all composed to add to it but I decided it was too trivial and cleared it out instead. Great find. Thanks. - Mark |

Subject: RE: BS: Internet Archive Website From: CarolC Date: 14 Feb 02 - 02:28 PM It really is an incredible resource, GtD. And just to keep these things all sort of linked together, click here if you want to see some discussion about it on an earlier thread. (Give it a minute to load to the post in question.) |

Subject: Internet Archive Website From: Geoff the Duck Date: 14 Feb 02 - 01:52 PM Hi folks The other day I chanced across a website where somebody is attempting to make a permanent record of what is out there on the Internet before it all disappears and is replaced by something more asinine. Their aim is to record for posterity, and for study, as much of the Internet as they can. The Internet Archive is working to prevent the Internet ? a new medium with major historical significance ? and other "born-digital" materials from disappearing into the past. Collaborating with institutions including the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian, we are working to permanently preserve a record of public material. I found an old copy of the Mudcat as it was in 1998 via this location Blicky to - http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.mudcat.org Their archives also include archived film material - public infomercials and stuff, if you can spare a few hundred megabites per download. Just thought it may be if interest to some of you out there! Quack! Geoff the Duck. p.s. I have also posted the same links in another thread, but hardly anyone seems to have noticed....... |
