I remember a couple of websites that seemed to be pretty ground-breaking a long time ago, but they are long gone now.
One of them was "Gabocorp.com" ... it had a nice flash interface. Another one was "Octopus.com" ... it was a cool-looking web-based 'mashup' of web content.
Is there a way to find out who coded these sites and contact them or otherwise find copies of these sites that are now defunct?

Also, if there is some random site that you remember from long ago, and you are a researcher in academia, where do you go if you want to look at the code of the site for study purposes?
