Reflections as the Internet Archive turns 25 (via frontendfoc.us).

As a young man, I wanted to help make a new medium that would be a step forward from Gutenberg's invention.

By using computers, we could make the Library not just searchable, but organizable; make it so that you could navigate your way through millions, and maybe eventually billions of web pages.
