    I was looking for a php script to verify domain age and I came across this:
    
    http://www.archive.org/web/web.php
    
    Code (markup):
    You can go back to any website that existed at any period in time. See the first Google homepage, the 1996 version of Yahoo!, and yes, the images work! (well, some of them do).

    (The program is a little buggy. Always go back to the page listed above to do a new search, don't use the bar they provide you with in their SERPs)

    (Sometimes you have to fiddle around trying out "http://" or taking it out, the same for "www." - its kind of a pain)

    (Don't do a search because it usually wont work. Instead, type in the exact domain name ex:"google.com" without the quotes)

    I remember this site, found it a year ago. It is a lot of fun and it really demonstrates how fast the internet changed.

    Thanks for posting I will take a new look into it :)

    This has been around for over a decade, I use it to look at sites that were shutdown or banned. Its also a good tool when browsing domains to purchase, by looking how the last owner operated the domain name...
