I use the Wayback Machine quite a bit. Here’s what WordPress.com looked like way back when we first started working on it. The Wayback Machine is part of the Internet Archive which I got to visit today. They have archived 27 years of web history (along with books, movies, games, and more) and provide free access to it all, just like a library. The servers pictured above are housed in an old church in San Francisco and they serve up the archive to millions of people every day. Please consider donating.
