Epilepsy warning! The linked video contains bright blue flashing lights against a dark background. The first few minutes have this the worst, but then the lights are shown in several other parts of the video.
February: Deepspeed Media made a short documentary about the Internet Archive. It's about thirteen minutes long.
When I was writing my book, the Otherkin Timeline, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine is one of the tools that I used to research the history of the emergence of the otherkin and therianthrope communities on the Internet. The Archive made it possible for me to see websites that had been gone since the 1990s. The Archive's ethic of preservation and sharing of information is important to me. (Ironically, my Otherkin Timeline is, itself, down for maintenance right now.)
