Top 10 Internet moments of the decadePosted Thursday, November 19, 2009, at 1:53 PM
I just came across a story on Fox News website that interested me and I thought I would share it with you all and get some thoughts.
"The Webby Awards list of the 10 most influential Internet moments of the decade: * Craigslist online classified site expands outside San Francisco (2000) * The launch of Google AdWords (2000) * The launch of online encyclopedia Wikipedia (2001) * The shutdown of file-sharing site Napster (2001) * Google's initial public offering (2004) * The online video revolution led by YouTube (2006) * Facebook opens to non-college students and Twitter launches (2006) * Apple's iPhone debuts (2007) * The use of the Internet in the US presidential campaign (2008) * The use of Twitter during the Iranian election protests (2009) The 14th annual Webby Awards are to be announced in April 2010. They reward excellence on the Internet in a number of categories including news and other websites, interactive advertising and online film and video." Have they left anything out? Included something silly? Frankly, I can see how many of these have changed not only technology, but in some ways life, as we know it. |
