The Wayback Machine needs improving

I use the Wayback Machine for my research on cancelled video games.

However, the Wayback Machine is pretty lackluster in features.

The Internet Archive Wayback Machine search functions needs to be better. Here's how:

 * full search engine for finding the keywords on archived pages

 * take you straight to the page with the keywords, not the website's main page

 * sort by date or relevancy

 * date range to search for pages on certain years or between certain years

 

Example: Dinosaur Hunting Xtreme is a cancelled PC game by Legba.

The only archived link I can find this game mentioned is Legba's website.

Searching for Dinosaur Hunting Xtreme on the Wayback Machine does NOT return Legba's site.

Example: Hab-12 is a cancelled PC game by Ratloop.

The only decent search result is Ratloop's website.

But you don't get Adrenaline Vault's preview in the results, which is a very helpful source.

The Internet Archive FAQ on the matter mentions they'll be implementing this in future.

"We hope to implement a full text search engine at some point in the future."

However, this article was uploaded years ago! Please implement it now!

When I search for anything, whether it be a video game, movie, or book, I want relevant results.

I want to see every website that mentions the keywords, not random websites.

Screw your metadata, it's worthless.
