Google engineer, author of three books on web productivity and an Open Source activist, Steve Souders presented a new HTTP Archive project, which should be a great addition to the well-known Internet archive .
Unlike the Internet Archive, there will be stored not the content of pages, but technical information: content types, page size, use of various technologies, the most popular scripts and JavaScript libraries, image formats, the number of pages with errors, etc. This will allow in the future to more fully trace the evolution of the web.
For example, statistics show that over the past six months, the use of flash on the web has decreased by 16%, and the average page size with content has grown by 88 KB.
