it‘s not just the wayback machine. It’s one of the most expansive free digital libraries to exist and you just need an internet connection and an email to access it. Radio, video games, comics, images, magazines, software– it would literally be easier to name what they don’t have than what they do have.

The internet archive is just the greatest thing ever, i love it for the ephemeral films and lost home videos, old religious and esoteric manuscripts, textbooks, nasa photos, centuries’ worth of magazine issues, old records, lectures…. 💌

Is a database of everything in the public domain, any format you can think of: videos, digital books, audio files, software files, etc., all available in any type of file you knew existed, and others you didn’t. It is a useful tool for finding archival video footage, any sort of audiobook you want to listen to, commercials aired on Cartoon Network in 2006, or incriminating documents on your enemies. Sometimes, when all my free trials of streaming services run out I spend the final lazy hours of my day browsing archive.org finding all sorts of esoterica like: Horses 2 (Wide Screen), The care and training of your pet rock [digital book], and Virtual Women 95 [computer program].
