Just ran across two articles showing the graphical changes to the home pages - www.yahoo.com for Yahoo and www.google.com for Google - over the past few years.
It's neat to see this. One of the things that I find personally frustrating about the real world is driving past a place ... and seeing a vacant spot where a building used to be. What was there? I can't remember.
So it warms some of my neurons to see the old pages and say "Oh, yeah, I remember that ..."
