Google Search 2001

By Miss Cellania in Blogs & Internet on Oct 1, 2008 at 8:25 am


In honor of the company’s tenth anniversary, Google has enabled its oldest search engine available, the 2001 version. The results are linked to the Internet Archive cache of the sites as they appeared in 2001. Using this, only 3 results came up for “Neatorama”, and they were all adjectives used to describe other sites. There were no results for “Miss Cellania”, so you can rest assured I am an original.

    I’m surprised 2001 is the earliest they started archiving. Seriously.
