The Wayback Machine: Complete Internet Archive

Yahoo! in 1996
First NY Times website in November 1996.
In 1996, the Internet Archive began archiving the web for a service called the Wayback Machine, where you can browse through 85 billion web pages archived from 1996 to a few months ago. The top graphic above shows one of the very first Yahoo websites on December 20, 1996, and the bottom graphic shows the very first web site of the New York Times on November 12, 1996. The World Wide Web sure has come a long way in the last 12 years.
