The DISCMASTER Internet Archive CD search tool rises again #History #Software @InternetArchive
In October of 2022, the DISCMASTER site arrived, providing amazing semantic search of thousands of shareware and compilation CD-ROMs at the Internet Archive. In the entry written on the blog back then, the advantages and features of this site were pretty well enumerated. Not all data from archive.org was present, the site focuses on vintage media (image/audio/video) and shareware.
…underneath this simple exterior beats the heart of a powerful search engine and an astounding amount of processing that has analyzed millions of files to make them easy to interact with. If your area of research or interest is vintage/historical software, we’ve all been handed a top-class tool to discover long-lost files and bring them back instantly.
Unfortunately, the site went down in June of 2023, due to a number of factors, However now it has returned! The website is at https://discmaster.textfiles.com.
