Wayback Machine: Know the past of a web page, its beginnings with this 'time machine'

Wayback Machine as its name says, it is a 'time Machine', a project that allows us to see what websites looked like in the past, that is, what design they had from the beginning and thus be able to consult it as it was before. Even if the site is no longer available.

In 2006 it contained up to 2 petabytes of information and grew by around 20 terabytes per month. At present this figure has certainly grown enormously and there are thousands and thousands of web pages preserved in this gigantic database.

Wayback Machine It is in English, but consulting it is very easy, it is only a matter of entering the website address and voila… to review it through history. The following capture is a sample of how the dates registered and from the year of their creation are presented on the calendar:

Just click on a marked date, of a specific year and we are immediately redirected to the Dark past from that our favorite website. In this his humble blog VidaBytes for example, it is right from your opening; October 29, 2009 and when I remember it, I even blush with the shame of ... unsightly design that I had before. By the way, who knew him since then?

But yes, as a curiosity I show you a capture of how it looked Google in its beginnings, in November 1998, a project that was born in the Stanford University. Apparently the logo was very clear and decided, because in little or nothing it has changed, like its button 'I'm gonna get lucky'.
