The Internet Archive is one of the crown jewels of the Internet. It's one of the things that I feel we were promised in the early days of technology, and it actually has managed to exist despite the massive commercialization of the Internet. In many ways it's the future we were promised, and it's an infinite pile of stuff so deep and wide that you could never buy another piece of entertainment and survive almost entirely off of the holdings in the archive and still not even scratch what's in there.

But if in a thousand years you want a record of what happened here now, that's what you really really need. Everything else is superfluous.
