If researchers want to know what happened on a special day, they often look at newspapers published (出版) on that day. But what would happen if newspapers were to stop publishing? Future researchers would likely turn to the Web.
The Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine at has for years saved websites from the past. But it only does this once a day for news websites. A reporter Ben Welsh decided to create a site similar to . But he wanted to archive (存档) only news websites. And he wanted to save their homepages (主页) more often.
In May Mr. Welsh created to save the homepages of seventy news websites once an hour. He said, “This schedule of what I call ‘harvesting’ is important in today’s quickly-changing news environment. Because over the course of a day, a news story can develop quite a bit. No one has saved the homepages of so many news websites so often and made that material available (可获得的) to the public. I hope to keep adding to the site until it is archiving material from up to three hundred news websites around the world.”
Ben Welsh spent about sixty dollars a month on storage space. He feared the cost would increase beyond what he could afford, so he asked people for help through the website Kickstarter. Within about a week, he had gotten what he had asked for and more.
Stephanie Bluestein, a reporter at the Los Angeles Times, said, “Now you could go back and see what the lead story was, how the headline changed and how the newspaper played a story. You can actually compare. Today’s news changes so quickly that even archiving once an hour may soon not be enough.”
