Keep ideas close with an AltaVista sticky note pad inspired by the early days of online search. When AltaVista launched in 1995, its fast crawler and searchable index helped users explore a web that was growing by the day. The brand's story later included the Babel Fish translation service and a changing path through the technology business. This desk companion suits fans of internet history, thoughtful note takers, and collectors who remember when a search could open a new corner of the web.
AltaVista was created by researchers at Digital Equipment Corporation to demonstrate company hardware and improve access to files on its public network. Paul Flaherty proposed the project, Louis Monier programmed its web crawler, and Michael Burrows wrote its indexer. Based in Palo Alto, California, AltaVista publicly launched on December 15, 1995, with a fast, multi-threaded crawler called Scooter and a backend database called TurboVista. It offered a searchable web index and became the exclusive provider of search results for Yahoo in 1996. In 1997 it introduced Babel Fish, a web-based text and webpage translation service. Compaq acquired Digital Equipment Corporation in January 1998 and, as part of the transaction, acquired AltaVista. Compaq spun off AltaVista in January 1999 and repositioned it as a web portal; later that year, it sold 83 percent of the company to CMGI. After subsequent ownership changes, Overture Services acquired AltaVista in February 2003, and Yahoo acquired Overture in July 2003. AltaVista's traffic later fell amid competition from Google Search and other services. In June 2013, its domain redirected to Yahoo Search.
