The Internet Archive

The Internet Archive, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, 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, the print disabled, and the general public. Our mission is to provide Universal Access to All Knowledge.

We began in 1996 by archiving the Internet itself, a medium that was just beginning to grow in use. Like newspapers, the content published on the web was ephemeral – but unlike newspapers, no one was saving it. Today we have 20+ years of web history accessible through the Wayback Machine and we work with 625+ library and other partners through our Archive-It program to identify important web pages.”

Nostalgia-TV – Suomalaista tv-historiaa

1/2022: Linkit päivitetty.

”Tämä sivusto on pyhitetty vanhoille tv-ajankuville, erityisesti kanavailmeille, tv-tekniikalle ja täyteohjelmille. Tämä sivu kertoo ainoastaan näistä asioista kattavasti ja taustajuttujen kera. Tarkoitus on edistää tietämystä näistä hienoista mutta turhan vähälle huomiolle jääneistä asioista. TV-ajankuvat ovat harvinainen mutta hyvä harrastus.”
