Archiving Monster somewhere out there?
Do you know there is a bot working very hard every day, every min, out there crawling for websites to archive?
To date 85 billions sites have been archived. Can you believe it? It is 85 billions websites. It would take a lifetime if we were to browse all the sites out there.

The Internet Archive is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that was founded to build an Internet library, with the purpose of offering permanent access for researchers, historians, and scholars to historical collections that exist in digital format. Founded in 1996 and located in the Presidio of San Francisco, the Archive has been receiving data donations from Alexa Internet and others. In late 1999, the organization started to grow to include more well-rounded collections. Now the Internet Archive includes texts, audio, moving images, and software as well as archived web pages in our collections.
