What exactly is digital archaeology? It's the documentation of the "formative years of digital culture" and it all happens right here on this site. Digital Archaeology was unveiled in London as part of Internet Week Europe 2010, bringing together a selection of sites to promote the concept of digital preservation. The main focus here is "Error 404," an exhibition that celebrates the golden age of the website, complete with profiles of classic sites on the "hardware and software of their day." The homepage features such articles as "Digital Revolution at the Barbican" and "The Secret History of WiFi.' Visitors can also check out the latest tweets and of course the "Error 404" exhibition itself. The Archives and Tags sections provide another fun way to explore the site.
