Do you guys ever use the Internet Archive for anything? I agree that they’re doing a great job archiving things, but realistically, through time most of things which happened have been forgotten.

I use the Wikipedia like once a week to look something up, but I only ever used the Internet Archive to look at a early version of my own website. But never for anything else. But perhaps I’m missing out on something?

    Pretty much any book you want to read for free, you can borrow from them. I use it very frequently to grab sections of some book I’m interested in or want to cite but don’t have a physical copy of.

    They also have awesome documentaries. The Mine Wars is, I think, one I saw not that long ago which was pretty sweet.

    I do not donate to them for using all this awesome stuff, even though I probably should.
