The Wayback Machine, openlibrary.org, and some other archive.org functions are offline because some network gear has failed.
We apologize and are working on it. More as it happens.

It's fine, take the time needed. Internet Archive and the WBM are essential tools that make research of old and lost sources possible where it would be in other case lost for good. Thanks for your service, guys. 🔥
noo i have to procrastinate my myspace revival again
spacehey is truly the dumbest name, but im glad it exists
My random ADHD fueled curiosity about a post from an account several years ago can wait. Take your time. Appreciate that you're there when these random thoughts pop into my head.
Probably nothing to worry about
I mean, what else is happening today?

Thanks for the update - will buy the engys a coffee or two :)
Would it be possible to not redirect errors to a different URL? I keep losing the URL every time I try to access the archive because it goes to web.archive.org/sry instead.
Hey guys. I just wanted to check to see if there happens to be a timeframe possibly when you think you will be back up?
Thank you for being such a rich resource. I hope people are being nice to you as you all are working hard to resolve this!
Wayback Machine is now getting 503 Service Unavailable errors. 😔😔😔
I was able to search for a page and get the calendar view but when I picked a revision to view, that revision gave me a 503 error. So it's clear you are working on it. Good hunting.
Is there a reason that the Wayback Machine in recent years has ran slower? Is it a server or storage issue?
