Capitol Fax.com - Your Illinois News Radar

Wayback

I was just trying out the “Wayback This Page” Firefox extenstion a few minutes ago, and found one of the first Capitol Fax media pages. Notice that the Tribune in those days was only available to AOL users. The Trib was an early AOL investor.

I was a bit of a latecomer to the web. The site was created in February of 1998 (although the Wayback page is from December of that year.) But it was one of the first of its kind because it helped organize the Internet for a specific purpose.

Anyway, I gotta get back to work. Enough of this playing.
