The best specialized tool

You can find years-old versions of web pages — it’s hit or miss, but still always useful to see what some official site was saying before or after a key event.

You can also put the Wayback Machine right in your browser by simply dragging this new toolbar link to your browser toolbar. Then when you visit a page that you want to find an old version of, just click and you will be transported to any historic versions at the Wayback Machine.
