A Old website that I found was http://travelassist.com/Links to an external site. it is a website that offers a variety of travel related services including trip planning booking flights and accommodations, and providing travel assistance. It was copyrighted at 1995-2012. The website travel assist focuses on customer support to handle inquiries on travel related issues that might arise during the trip. The website is out of date and doens't have updated information about current traveling places right now. 

Another website I found is the online store for Macy'sLinks to an external site., it is a leading department store chain. It offers a wide variety of products, including clothing, accessories, beauty products, home goods, and more. Macy's website is a convenient shopping experience with options for online exclusive deals, product reviews, and customer support.  The website was found in 2003 and is still running today.

Web pages detailing features of Adobe Flash Player, including the settings manager, are obsolete since Adobe officially ended support for Flash in 2020 and recommended that users uninstall it.

Many scientific papers and journals that are dated more than 5 years ago and are still correct. For example, the following research article which is published in 2017:

Old Web Page 1: https://www.artofmanliness.com/people/relationships/the-dos-donts-of-a-dinner-date/Links to an external site.

This web page was created in 2008 and discusses dos and don’ts on a first date. It’s hard to say the tips here are incorrect, but it’s really funny. Such as “Open the door for your date and pull out her chair for her.” and “Pay for the whole bill, and make it obvious you are going to do so to avoid an awkward conversation.” Web pages assume hetero-sexual parties are dating. According to the current article, it seems okay to be open about who and how to pay between the two. Also, when it comes to opening doors and pulling out chairs, Reddit users say as long as you are consistent, it is okay.

Old Web Page 2https://www.edutopia.org/whats-next-2008-netiquette-guidelinesLinks to an external site.

This web page was also created in 2008 and talks about students' online manners. The basics of netiquette are still valid today such as “Use a clear and understandable email subject line” and “Don't forward private messages to people they weren't intended for or copy others on replies to personal messages.”

Through the "time machine" function of the Internet Archive, I found a global village website released in 1997  
This website shows the great changes of the Internet in the past decades, and the evolution of network culture is obvious to all. However, browsing these old websites is like opening a history book of the Internet, providing us with the opportunity to look back on the past, and also allowing us to reflect on the progress and development of the Internet today.

I read a book about the concept of heat recently, from the flame of a candle to the lava of volcanoes, all the way to the radiant power of the sun and the devastating fury of nuclear weapons. The author visited a museum based entirely on peat, an accumulation of decaying organics cut into bricks or pellets and used as an alternative to coal. The link to their website no longer works, and the book was written in 2013, making it just over 10 years old.

The site is in Estonian which makes it funnier because I spent 2 minutes typing it in by hand just for it to give me a 404 error.

This website was made in the 90's and last updated in 2004. it's about linux systems and some network things. I think it's pretty crazy how people were actually using linux way back then. I mean I know it's old but a whole website consulting you with it is crazy.

I found the Space Jam 1996 movie webpage https://www.spacejam.com/1996/Links to an external site.. At the footer of the webpage it shows that it was created in 1996, and still has all the information about the movie and the characters information.

 

https://greyhoundbusmuseum.org/Links to an external site. This website was created back in 2009, although the landing page and other sections are functional the content is outdated and the office hours and fees are not accurate.

The silliest page I found was definitely the 'OJ Simpson Trial Hub' (http://www.cnn.com/US/OJ/Links to an external site.). CNN still hasn't taken down the main page from the 1996 trial of Orenthal James Simpson. It has all the big court dates and information on the case. However, it doesn't have any recent information on his release or other things. Whats super interesting about it is that there is a page on it that lists the day of the murder time stamped along with some other small details. 

The next interesting site I found was the Heavens Gate cult, which still had its website up: https://www.heavensgate.com/Links to an external site.. It still has all their information out, even though they no longer exist.
