When Sir Tim Berners-Lee created the World Wide Web, he introduced simple numeric codes to describe what was happening with each request. You might be familiar with:
200 “OK”
404 “Not Found”

Among those early web codes was 402, “Payment Required”

We are back. Our provider found and repaired a fiber issue last night and traffic has returned. We are sorry for the disruption.
The Wayback Machine, openlibrary.org, and some other archive.org functions are offline because some network gear has failed.

We apologize and are working on it. More as it happens.

Federal agencies are posting banners on their websites accusing Democrats and the “Radical Left” for the government shutdown, using language that is partisan, disparaging, and contemptuous.

Happy Internet Archive Day to all who celebrate.

The Internet Archive is hitting its trillionth webpage archived, and - as a long time collaborator and historian of both web archiving more generally as well as the Internet Archive specifically - am happy to join them for this milestone.

Public records, private view.

I used to read behind a private shade, alone with ink, no footprints made.

Now every page I try to see,
demands I share my identity.

Login to read, login to learn.
Who’s reading me while I read?
Whose ledger marks the page I turn?

A little proof of concept I've been working on, it's a version of Bluesky that you can run locally, even on your laptop, that pulls just the data you care about from the firehose, indexes it, and provides you an interface to view and interact with posts.

Should have guessed it: "Due to a lack of apportionment of funds, this website is currently unavailable." oversight.gov is where many reports and audits are collected for Inspectors General across the exec branch. It takes some digging in wayback to access reports. web.archive.org/web/20250000...
