Are task was to find 3 websites on the WayBack machine and compare the older versions to the newer looking websites and also compare the coding of the websites because this is a web class after all.
YouTube
The first layout of youtube in 2005 was a way different format than the one today.
The source code of youtube 05' was a different form of HTML coding.
YouTube Now
Youtube looks official after being bought by google, the site has an easier way to watch videos and enjoy them.
The code is a lot more beefier than the older one, which means that there is a lot more information within the site.
Yahoo
Old yahoo looked good for its time, i think? its much more colorful and more 80's like
There was a lot of links on that one page with barely anything on it
Yahoo Now
Now that yahoo has grown so has the website, with more news than a search engine.
The code looks more complex but it really isn't
Twitter
Twitter looks like its time period, looks like an 8 year old tried to make a website.
The code looks good though only having a little on the page.
Twitter Now
As the #1 social media site, its gotta look professional, and it does that very well. It has the right age group of teens and young adults to drag in with a good looking website.
The code has a lot of links for the different profiles on the main page.
The Purpose of this is to have an archive of internet websites and they way they looked.
The internet archive (https://archive.org/index.php) also holds archives for text, video, audio, software, and video files from years ago.
I like that you can find much more than just how websites looked long ago.
