Archive Team is a group dedicated to preserving digital history that was founded by Jason Scott in 2009.[1][2] Its primary focus is the copying and preservation of content housed by at-risk services. Some of its projects include the partial preservation of GeoCities,[3][4] Yahoo! Video, Google Video, Splinder, Friendster, FortuneCity,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] TwitPic,[13] SoundCloud,[14] and the "Aaron Swartz Memorial JSTOR Liberator".[15] Archive Team also archives URL shortener services[16] and wikis[17] on a regular basis.

According to Jason Scott, "Archive Team was started out of anger and a feeling of powerlessness, this feeling that we were letting companies decide for us what was going to survive and what was going to die."[18] Scott continues, "it's not our job to figure out what's valuable, to figure out what's meaningful. We work by three virtues: rage, paranoia and kleptomania."[19]
