The Way Back Machine!

[Sinistra]

So for a bit of nostalgia and some forum name ideas. I thought I would use the Way Back Machine. If you don't know what this is. It is an archive of websites by domain names. Seeing as I have had a few good websites that were active in the day I figured I would get some inspiration from them. Brought back all the good memories I had back then. Plus it will also show you how much of a weirdo you were back then too. So my to you is. Have you ever used the Way Back Machine, if not for inspiration but for ideas on your community.?

I for sure use it. I like looking back at previous ideas from some of my former forums, or forums I worked on. I like just reliving the history though!

I enjoy using it from time to time just to relive what some of my favorite websites used to look like, or to see forums that no longer exist and take a trip down memory lane. Though lately I feel like the Wayback Machine has been taking longer to load for me. I'm not sure if it's my internet connection or the site itself, but I feel like it used to load faster.

I've used the Wayback Machine a lot, especially to recover InvisionFree/ZetaBoards skins to convert to the Jcink software. I'll occasionally use it for nostalgic reasons, but the aforementioned is my primary use for it.

Always cool to see comparisons like this of websites, wasn’t around for the earlier version so seeing this is nice!

Certainly. Must be awesome to look back and take in how far AJ has come.

Definitely is. What started as a lone adventure, turned into an awesome community!

It's pretty amazing to see all the growth AJ has had. Layout changes, staffing, themes! It's crazy how much can change in just a year! It definitely has become a community.
