Google, Circa 2001
An anonymous reader writes "If you have 10 minutes to spare, take a look at an archive that Google has posted to mark the company's 10th anniversary. The search engine and its results are based on data from 2001, but it's interesting to see what turns up when popular 2008 terms are entered. For instance, iPod generates a reference to Image Proof of Deposit Document Processing System, and the 771 Barack Obama results centered around his duties as an Illinois State Senator."

It was so refreshing to search for 9/11 and not have any of the crap from the last seven years show up. A simpler time indeed.

Oh, to once again live in a world where a search for "9/11" or "9-11" brings up nothing about terrorist attacks.
Then again, "Ubuntu Linux" doesn't bring up anything at all...
The submitted article contains a subtle dig at Barack Obama, implying that he is unsuitable for the executive office because a primitive version of Google's PageRank algorithm only had 771 results.
I wonder how many results that same algorithm had for Theodore Roosevelt, 7 years before he became President? Few predicted his meteoric rise!

He warns that the current setup of those two lenders are working to destabilize the marketplace.
From his testimony: "At best, this mixing of private and political incentives creates marketplace confusion; at worst, it leads to a serious misallocation of capital and an increasing risk for American taxpayers."

In case you're interested Not much different.
Well.. maybe. Or Maybe not. But Definitely not sort of.
This is a useful tool, as well as being a bit of fun.
In addition to all the standard "wii gives no results!" posts, what I noticed, and what was nice to see when searching for a few things, was the absolute lack of blog/link spam everywhere. Searching for a couple of terms that I still search for now yielded 300 odd results - but 300 *relevant result*. Searching for the same thing with the 2008 engine gives me tens of thousands - but 90% of them are just pollution results. The 2001 engine actually kicked up a few "new" results for things that, while still technically available on the 2008 engine, are on page 152 of it - and so hence essentially lost and I have never seen them before.
It links in to what I have argued previously - fork search engines. A bleeding edge "just spidered" version for those who want to chase up-to-the-minute things - and a "stable" time-lag version that would defeat the point of spam (if a blog/link spamming campaign has to wait for a couple of years to get their search results in to the stable engine results then they are less likely to bother).
It finds my old web page hosted on delphi.com. I wrote that HTML on an Apple IIgs in 1996 or so.
That is cool.
Of course the link doesn't work and the archive no longer contains the page. But it was in Google's index.
It wasn't, it just happened on FTP servers and USENET.

The Impossibility of a Soft-Landing
June 30, 2000
This acute supply and demand imbalance led to year over year price increases
of 29% in "wine country" and 34% in the Santa Clara region. Elsewhere, prices
surged 17% in Orange Country, 19% in Northern California, 21% in the San
Diego region, and 34% in Monterey. Clearly, this has developed into a
precarious statewide housing bubble. Amazingly, we hear not a word of
concern about what is a major systemic risk to the U.S. financial
system. And, importantly, the Fed's decision to let the party continue
allows the great California real estate bubble to run to even more
devastating extremes. Who is minding the store? Most unfortunately, this
is a replay of the 80's real estate fiasco but at a much grander scale -
actually the proverbial "mountain versus a molehill" applies. Yet,
amazingly, no one dare say "enough is enough," and instead the
dysfunctional marketplace continues to fund the boom despite the
obviousness of the unsound bubble. Massive credit excess feed asset
inflation and a major misallocation of resources, as the Fed tinkers
with rates. What a fiasco.'
Sub-Prime Industry Up in Arms Over Fannie Mae Announcement
December, 2002
Fannie Mae has a new program out for borrowers with lower credit
ratings and the sub-prime industry is taking exception.
The Executive Director of our industry association, NHEMA (link found
in our Resources section) was quoted in today's American Bankers as
saying "Fannie Mae is expanding its mission into areas where it has
virtually no experience, and taxpayers should be prepared for a
bailout that could rival our savings and loan experience," and that
the association predicts that the program will cost Fannie its biggest
losses ever, he said. The outcome, he said, will be that consumers
with credit problems will "be back where they were 25 years ago -- no
access to mortgages or loans at all, other than loan sharks."'

That is definitely a matter of opinion.
One of the first things I searched for was "Warlords", a series of games that I used to play. I found a fansite that had recently died.
The administrator of that site had a list of the reasons he decided to close it down.
At times, I wish that were still the case. Personal websites of that time still had ways to be annoying, though... Embedded music and blink tags.
That's exactly where I found it (as well as a lot of other old gems like Seven Kingdoms). I remember being amazed at the detail the creators had put into the map... Every ruin and city had a human-written story, even the ones in scenarios that weren't part of the main game! I don't think I've seen that in any game I've played since...

Searching for "Y2K Bug" is interesting, as you still have remnants of the doomsayers' sites in the search results.

Oh, and don't forget IRC. Usenet sucked back in the day, considering modem speeds and the overhead from UUencoding. Most transfers happened via IRC bots and FTP servers. Many an unsuspecting corporate site had their /incoming directories become very popular overnight. Spring break would hit and the EDU's would start popping up on the FTP lists traded on efnet.
One of the more interesting things to do to an admin was create a directory under their /incoming using vt100 codes, where it wasn't immediately visible. They'd see heavy traffic and disk space filling up, yet not be able to figure out the how and why. It also had the added benefit of keeping Windows FTP clients from accessing the site.

"Knowledge is the only instrument of production that is not subject to diminishing returns" -Journal of Political Econom
Given that the 9/11 attack hadn't happened yet, and knowing now that within 1 year 2,999 people would be killed in what would be the single deadliest terrorist attack in the history of the United States, causing over $1.4 TRILLION of economic damage within 7 days, do you believe that their may have been real, credible, terrorist threats at that time? Further, given that the al-Qaeda terrorist network, led by Osama Bin Laden, whose overall mission statement begins by quoting the Koran as saying, "slay the pagans wherever ye find them" and concludes that it is the "duty of every Muslim" to "kill Americans anywhere" was growing increasingly active, with the US Embassy Bombings and the attack of the USS Cole, would then have been an appropriate time to take a stand against terrorism?
Attacking a candidate for being anti-terrorism BEFORE the largest terrorist attack in history seems pretty stupid to me. Even if you could go back in time, and wish a little harder that it wouldn't happen, it would still happen. I'd rather have someone in office that has the foresight to see the writing on the wall and do something about it ahead of time.
