Marion – I remembered using the Wayback Machine years ago when I was doing genealogy. I tried it this morning for a couple of 2006 crawls and while I can get to the Discussion Boards’ tables of content, clicking on individual topics brings up the message, “The Wayback Machine does not have this URL” and it defaults to the current web pages.
This doesn’t appear to be the case for more recent crawls when the machine apparently went deeper into the web site. For example, I pulled up a 1/15/13 crawl and the latest posts were for 1/15/13.
I’ll have to check different crawl dates to see when they shifted from the limited crawl to a full crawl.
