Access the Information Super Highway with the ProtoWeb!
We are a team of volunteers working to provide a range of Network services for classic computer users. The service is an archival project that hosts restored historical websites from the early days of the Internet and focuses on ease of access and usability. ProtoWeb also hosts several reconstructed FTP sites with large file archives of the bygone era. Content is being curated and added daily.
Our service is in BETA, and is currently going through a very substantial development phase as we build the tools and documentation to support the service, while concurrently building up the planned extensive library of classic web sites and resources.
It's easy to get started!
All you need is a networked computer and a supported web browser. You will need to add our proxy servers to the web browser of your choice to access the service. If you have a modern computer, you can download and install RetroZilla, which renders many websites the way they were intended. Many supported browsers have instructions how to setup in our quick start guide. The service is intended as a networked resource for classic computer users, to recreate the early Internet experience.
The PROTOWEB service is currently in BETA! Many features are still in progress, and you may see some sites and resources not working properly, but we're working hard to bring these resources online. If you would like to get updates, or participate in development including web site restoration, we'd be happy to hear from you! Feel free to join our Discussion groups!
