Por supuesto, este archivo no me sirve, porque los enlaces a páginas subordinadas no fueron archivados. El sitio era un árbol de varios niveles, y muchas páginas, y sólo se conserva la portada. Así, si quiero ver las dependencias, debo dar la dirección de cada nodo del árbol, por ejemplo, para ir a la información sobre Plex (sólo el primer subnodo, porque esta rama contiene no menos de diez nodos dependientes).
Sobre el servicio de Wayback Machine:
This project is designed to create a unique global snapshot of the Web and to help improve and demonstrate the scalability of the Heritrix web crawler.Sobre Internet Archive:
Browse through 85 billion web pages archived from 1996 to a few months ago. To start surfing the Wayback, type in the web address of a site or page where you would like to start, and press enter. Then select from the archived dates available. The resulting pages point to other archived pages at as close a date as possible. Keyword searching is not currently supported.
The Internet Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form. Like a paper library, we provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public.¿Cómo conocí el servicio? En Foros del Web, FaQ de Dominios y Hosting, pregunta #30, comentado por augustino. Foros del web es especialmente útil para diseñadores web, administradores y propietarios de sitios web, de habla castellana. Participan muchos estudiantes de informática, que más de una vez han dado motivo a algunos de mis comentarios aquí.
The Internet Archive is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that was founded to build an Internet library, with the purpose of offering permanent access for researchers, historians, and scholars to historical collections that exist in digital format. Founded in 1996 and located in the Presidio of San Francisco, the Archive has been receiving data donations from Alexa Internet and others. In late 1999, the organization started to grow to include more well-rounded collections. Now the Internet Archive includes texts, audio, moving images, and software as well as archived web pages in our collections.
Libraries exist to preserve society's cultural artifacts and to provide access to them. If libraries are to continue to foster education and scholarship in this era of digital technology, it's essential for them to extend those functions into the digital world.
Why the Archive is Building an 'Internet Library'
Many early movies were recycled to recover the silver in the film. The Library of Alexandria - an ancient center of learning containing a copy of every book in the world - was eventually burned to the ground. Even now, at the turn of the 21st century, no comprehensive archives of television or radio programs exist.
But without cultural artifacts, civilization has no memory and no mechanism to learn from its successes and failures. And paradoxically, with the explosion of the Internet, we live in what Danny Hillis has referred to as our "digital dark age."
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 preserve a record for generations to come.
Open and free access to literature and other writings has long been considered essential to education and to the maintenance of an open society. Public and philanthropic enterprises have supported it through the ages.
The Internet Archive is opening its collections to researchers, historians, and scholars. The Archive has no vested interest in the discoveries of the users of its collections, nor is it a grant-making organization.
At present, the size of our Web collection is such that using it requires programming skills. However, we are hopeful about the development of tools and methods that will give the general public easy and meaningful access to our collective history. In addition to developing our own collections, we are working to promote the formation of other Internet libraries in the United States and elsewhere.
