YTMND (You're The Man Now Dog) is a humour website featuring user-created web pages in the form of a tiled image and an audio track. The site makes use of flash to load the images and play the audio, but there is a HTML5-based system for devices without Flash that seems to work on Ipads but not Iphones. It was launched in 2001 and contains lots of significant online culture and history.

The owner, Max Goldberg, has stated that it is no longer cost-effective to host the website and it will eventually be taken offline, and he has reached out to Archive Team to preserve it.

Archiving

The owner has kindly offered to give us the (anonymized) database and the content. The storage cost is about 1.7 TB for the content, and the MySQL database is about 180 GB.

A Warrior job to scrape the site is also planned.
