I am almost always looking for a known website to find some lost piece of information, so I'll be interested in how a topic search interface would actually work.
Of no utility to your question, but fun: the wayback_exe project, where a bot runs against the Wayback Machine API and makes a screen grab of a vintage website which it then frames inside the context of a vintage browser. It's really quite a fascinating look back in time. The bot posts results to Twitter every couple of hours. I'm unclear how the target pages are seeded. https://twitter.com/wayback_exe On Thu, Apr 21, 2016 at 4:59 PM, Greg Lindahl <lind...@pbm.com> wrote: > I'm working on a search engine for the Internet Archive's Wayback > Machine web archive, and we're at the stage where we could use a > diverse set of web search queries for quality assessment.
