9 years of Providence radio websites

Found this cool site some of you may know about:

http://www.waybackmachine.org/

It's an internet archive site & by typing in the station's website in the Wayback Machine space you'll come up with a list of months & years where an archived station website is online. Some photos are not archived but it's interesting to view how some of the designs have changed & the station line-ups. It actually works for any website I guess, but I experimented with a few for radio stations & it's a nice time-killer. Some sites are archived back as far as late 1996.

And Buzzy The Bee too. You can see the changing images of some stations by checking out past websites but nowhere is it more evident than B101. Yes maybe the old yellow site was cheesey but it had a fun look to it. They're still a good station but even if I didn't know it I could listen to B101 & Coast & know the same person programs them both. I don't know if that's good or bad.
