DNS History is a DNS record archive provided by 8086 Consulting.
On July 10th, 2016, DNS History will be shut down due to "funding issues".
Announcement
On the main page, on the right:
- "This site will shut down on the 10th July 2016 due to funding issues."
There has been no further annoucement which we have been able to find at this time, the operators have not replied, and the forums are inaccessible.
Discovery results
A scrape of all TLDs which are crawled by DNS History currently is available here.
Out of the 1365 TLDs,
- 1114 do have pages
- 1110 are here
- .info: 251346 pages
- .org: 288405 pages
- .net: 422569 pages
- .com: discovery still running (expected to be millions of pages)
- 251 don't have a single domain: they
How can I help?
Running a Warrior
You can start up a Warrior and there select DNSHistory. (If you don't really care what you are archiving, select ArchiveTeam's Choice instead, as at some points ArchiveTeam may priorize another project.)
Running the script manually
If you use Linux and you're a bit familiar with it, you can try running the script directly. - When it's written!
The instructions can be found at github.com/ArchiveTeam/coursera-grab.

Donating to the Internet Archive
Content downloaded by the ArchiveTeam will be uploaded to the Internet Archive, where it will be stored and be available – hopefully – forever. However, storing it costs thousands of dollars in the long run. So, if you can afford, please consider donating to the Internet Archive, so that this piece of history can be kept for us all. http://archive.org/donate
