I've been doing the same. I have also started using oocities.org a lot (old
Geocities archive). Although it rather ironically uses Google to search the
archives, you can find some fantastic information there from back when the web
was built with nothing but human-generated content and free expression was
permitted. It's great for all sorts of stuff. I recommend adding it to your
search arsenal for times when you don't need recent content.
Usenetarchives.com can also be helpful at times depending on what you're
looking for, though the search function is pretty flaky.  Long live the
yesterweb. AI can suck an egg.
