The Internet Archive discovers and captures web pages through many different web crawls.
At any given time several distinct crawls are running, some for months, and some every day or longer.

Aza Raskin delivered the eighth Web Ex ponents tech talk at Google last week. Aza is head of user experience at Mozilla Labs . He's an entrepreneur and Renaissance man , as evidenced by the breadth of topics in his presentation.speak with , computer applications using a familiar language.Ubiquity is one of the projects from Mozilla Labs that bridges this digital divide. Ubiquity is a Firefox add-on that allows users to complete tasks using a more intuitive language. One example Aza shows is highlighting part of a web page and typing "translate this to Russian". Ubiquity acts on the user's request by replacing the text in the web page with the Russian translation. Another example is typing an address in a Yahoo! Mail message, typing "map this", and having Ubiquity embed the desired Google map inside the email.you-centric computing - allowing us to interact by talking about what we want to do, rather than forcing us to think about how to do it. Ubiquity achieves this, moving us from a web of nouns to a web of verbs. The point, according to Aza, is "perhaps by adding language, by making things hackable, we go from interfaces which work to our failabilities and our frailities, and instead are a little bit more human and hence a little bit more humane."Jetpack extends Ubiquity's theme of making the Web hackable. Aza describes it as "an incredibly fast prototyping environment for changing the Web to make the Web yours. Sort of like taking the idea of Greasemonkey and mashing it up with extensions and giving it all steroids." Ubiquity and Jetpack allow each of us to make the Web our very own by modifying it to work the way we want.Matt Mullenweg's talk at Velocity about slow web sites (my personal bent). There Matt says, "...when an interface is faster, you feel good. And ultimately what that comes down to is you feel in control." Empowering users is a common goal, and yet today's web applications still contain many hurdles (complexity, poor interaction language, slowness) that need to be addressed to make users feel in control and ultimately happy. Thanks to Aza and the folks at Mozilla Labs, we're moving closer to the you-centric Web each of us wants.By Steve Souders, Performance Evangelist
This post is part of the Who's @ Google I/O , a series of blog posts that give a closer look at developers who'll be speaking or demoing at Google I/O . Today's post is a guest post written by Dion Almaer of Mozilla's Bespin project Ben Galbraith , in a new Developer Tools Lab.the Bespin project . Ben and I have been talking about the great things that you can do on the Web platform for quite some years. We feel like there is a big sea change happening right now as the various browsers kick into a new gear with fantastic features. The core runtimes on the Web (the browsers) are getting serious horse power. With technologies such as Web Workers, Canvas, advanced caching (application cache), local storage, native video / audio, and screaming fast JavaScript VMs, we feel that a new world of possibilities is going to hit the Web.You could "follow" a developer and see how he codes? I would love to follow Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript, as he hacks on TraceMonkey! You could do a live code review with someone, and both edit the code in place, a la SubEthaEdit or Google Docs? Have a chat session that associates itself with the code files, so you can go back and see the conversations around a bit of code? You were told that someone else is editing in the same file so you can quickly commit the code so they have to do the merge :P You could search and subscribe to others commands, which will then be automatically updated for you And much much more, as you can see on our Roadmap visit our community home :Google I/O (May 27-28) to speak not only about Bespin, but about the Open Web platform itself. I can't wait to share more of our community's work pushing the Open Web forward, and would love feedback on our projects and what you really need from us as developers. Hope to see you in May!By Dion Almaer, Developer Tools Lab at Mozilla
