How To Step Back In Time To The Web Of The 1990's

Do you ever wonder what your favorite web sites looked like way back in the 1990's? With the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine you can stop wondering and actually see what it was like to surf the Web back then. The Wayback Machine has archived billions of web pages for you to view, many of them dating back to 1996.

Here's how you can take a trip on the Internet's time machine:

  1. At The Wayback Machine of The Internet Archive type in the web address of a site you want to travel back in time to. Then click Take Me Back.
  2. On the resulting page simply click on the dates you're interested in. You'll see a snapshot of the web site as it actually appeared on that date.

That's all there is to it! Whenever you're feeling a touch nostalgic for the "good old days" of the web, be sure to check out the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
