Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

May 17th is my dear friend Sassybear's birthday! It's a milestone one this year!
OMFG, you DON'T know Sassybear? You been hiding under a rock or something? WTF is WRONG with you?????
Sassy loves bears (the human kind) and giraffes (the animal kind).
He makes the best damn cosmos on the planet (do not question this); NONE come close to his!
He loves his husband Jeffrey and his puppies Harvey and Rita Mae.
He crochets. He's learning how to knit. He plays the trombone. He's a nudist. He's an atheist.
He LOVES superheros (like The Green Lantern) and anything "Peanuts" (Snoopy especially).
He's OUT and PROUD! He has a good job. He owns a lovely home. He can cook like a boss. He's a great interior decorator.
His smile is infectious, as is his sense of humor.
Once you meet Sassy, you feel like you've known him your whole life. He encourages me to live my life on MY terms. He accepts me as I am.
Being with Sassy is a priceless joy.
I am proud to call him my friend.
LOVE YOU, SASSYBEAR; HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT BIRTHDAY!
GO HORIZONTAL, as Spo always says.
And FUCK, my cartoon didn't work, FUCK! FUCK YOU, WARNER BROTHERS!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY (April 21) to Jimmy and (April 24) to Mister Shife!
Had outpatient surgery #2 yesterday (not serious), and am not feeling up to a whole post.
Flying high on legal drugs post-op. My MD "dusted and cleaned" both legs yesterday, like he did on December 11. So I will leave you with these images:
