The Wayback Machine is also a great thing to keep in mind if you ever come across a 404 page, just pop in the URL and be instantly transported back in time!.Another tool worth using is Neocities, while a lot of it is crappy personal web-pages, sometimes you'll find something good in there if you dig deep enough.Why? Because unlike Google, DDG sorts by relevance instead of popularity and Wiby is more of a curation of obscure websites than an actual web-crawler, plus they've got a random page button, like what Google used to have before they sucked. The search engines I recommend for this activity are DuckDuckGo and Wiby. If you can find anything good through Google then more power to ya, but in my experience they tend to bury the cool shit under all the Silicon Valley crap. Now, here's a few suggestions to help out! Well I had a thought and here's what I've thunk, I thought why not dedicate a thread to crawling around the internet every now and then and sharing our findings! I tend to do this anyway every once in a while so why not make a game out of it with my fellow forum rats? So I got drinkin', which got me thinkin', the internet's a big place, huge even! There's over five-billion pages shooting through these sub-aquatic cables and so many of us choose to confine ourselves to just four or five websites, it's absurd!
