The Internet automatically backs up…The Internet???
Phil South - November 15, 2006
You know what’s really weird about the concept of backing up the entire Internet? Where on earth would you put it all?
I don’t know how it works, but over at www.archive.org they have a thing called the Internet Wayback Machine. You can put in a URL and it will take you back to what that page looked like in 1996. It must be vestigial logs from the hosting sites or something, I don’t see how it can work, but it does. I can verify I went back to a lot of my old websites that are LONG gone and there they were, graphics and all.
That’s not even possible, is it?
Mind boggling. Go boggle your own mind at The Internet Wayback Machine.
