You\'ve most likely heard of Brewster Kahle\'s Internet Archive. In the case that you have not, this note on the homepage should tantalize you

The Internet Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form. Like a paper library, we provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public.

Well, an interesting article from Business Week tells of the development of Kahle\'s project, his plans for the future (which include better searching capablilites and digital copies of TV and radio programs) and the *huge* obstacle that is COPYRIGHT! In the article, Lawrence Lessig calls Kahle his \"hero.\" Wow! The strange thing about the article is that it seems to be sympathetic to Kahle and Lessig, rather than business.
