Groups from the Internet Archive by Michael https://datahorde.org/how-to-recover-your-yahoo-groups-from-the-internet-archive/#comment-32191 Mon, 07 Apr 2025 19:34:47 +0000 https://datahorde.org/?p=2293#comment-32191 For readers of this article who want to cut to the chase and simply find any existing archive of their former, open (public) Yahoo Group:

1. Simply take this url:
https://archive.org/search?query=subject%3A%22yahoo%20groups%22%20handle
and replace [handle] with the exact name of their former group, as found in the group’s old Yahoo web address. If the official Yahoo Group was located at yahoo.com/groups/abrahamlincolnofficial or groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/abrahamlincolnofficial, then the group handle was “abrahamlincolnofficial”. Former group owners and admins would hopefully remember the handle.

2. If there is a search result with the Yahoo logo, then click on the result. If there is no result and you are certain of the handle,

3. Click on “Web Archive GZ” to download the compressed archive of your group.

4. Choose decompression tools to extract and display the archive.

I will join the tech team that seems to be working on this.

We’re still working on organizing the data, and saved a lot of groups which were Restricted for spam prevention reasons. But we are happy to confirm which groups are saved, and volunteers who help with the tagging can request specific group data to be dug out of the disorganized pile a bit early.
