In 1995, Sandra Bullock became the first person in history to buy movie tickets online. She did it to promote her film THE NET. Only 30 years ago, but things have changed a lot.

Wayback Machine Alternatives
Many of the tools in the list are primarily aimed at preserving pages. However, you can try searching for data saved by others using Google: "keyword site:pagefreezer.com" (similarly for other tools domains).

I've said this for a while now - in the post-truth society, people don't care if images are AI-generated. They only care about the emotional value and whether the content fits their agenda/worldview.

RIP Social Apps, 2005-2023
As of iOS 18, friend-based contact sync apps are basically dead on arrival. The number of people consenting to the new permission has nose-dived—so there is no way to get density in a meaningful way.
But as one door closes, another opens up:
From the handful of dashboards I've seen, the retention rates on AI companion/girlfriend apps are extraordinary.
Instinctually, I thought the entire space was bullshit. But it's now clear that the ability to craft relevant, empathetic responses to any user input is a powerful lever to activating users and entrenching them into a relationship, albeit artificial.
For better or for worse, LLMs might be the new Contact Sync. If we can't find our friends on apps anymore, people will find something else to talk to.

We know many people, including those in the research community, value seeing previous versions of webpages when available. That’s why beginning today, we're adding links to the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine to our "About this result" panel, to give people quick context and make this helpful information easily accessible through Search.
To access archive links, click on the three dots next to a search result. In the window that appears, click on the "More about this page" button, then look for the "See previous versions on Internet Archive's Wayback Machine" link.
It will take a day or so for this to fully roll out and be available for those searching in 40 different languages. Learn more about how "About this result" works and other information it offers here: support.google.com/websearch…

So, Google is killing its cache (which was amazingly useful), and replacing it with a third-party solution of linking to the Internet Archive. I really hope the Internet Archive is being paid -- and paid a lot -- for this.
