this thing is amazing!!!!!!! you can see ANY old webpage!

You all know about when the web started right!? Well, when the Internet was first brought online people started creating sites, then Alexa decided to collect information on all current websites in, i think 1996 and now they have this HUGE archive of websites!!!!

TAKE A LOOK AT THE OLD GOOGLE!!!!!!!!!!!! looks like crap but was good at the time:

It is a fun website to play around with though.
