1991年8月，美国正式将互联网技术由军用转为民用，由此引发了全球互联网热潮，人类生活开始了天翻地覆的变化。本周出版的英国《观察家报》列出了在这15年里改变世界的15个网站。

    1  www.eBay.com(电子港湾)
    创建：皮埃尔·奥米迪亚，1995年，美国
    用户：1.68亿
    关键词：在线拍卖和购物
    除了枪支弹药以外，你几乎可以在这里买到任何想买的东西。许多人甚至放弃了原有的工作，转而选择在这个网上大卖场开店创业。

    2  www.wikipedia.com(维基百科)
    创建：吉米·威尔士，2001年，美国
    用户：每天91.2万人次访问
    关键词：免费百科全书
    这本百科全书有个与众不同之处：它向所有网民开放，每个人既是读者，又是编辑。你可以任意创建或者改编一个条目，所需要做的只是点击、打字、提交，然后刷新。

dAVId注：该网站目前被GCD封了，原因是上面有FLG的内容…….

    3  www.napster.com(纳帕斯特)
    创建：肖恩·范宁，1999年，美国
    用户：50万个付费用户
    关键词：音乐共享
    网站最初提供的是免费音乐下载，在2000年注册用户就超过了7000万。但随之而来的全球五大唱片公司联名控告它侵犯版权的官司，使得它无奈变身为收费下载网站。

    4  www.youtube.com
    创建：扎德·赫尔利、史蒂夫·陈和乔德·卡瑞姆，2005年，美国
    用户：每天1亿人次视频浏览
    关键词：视频共享
    一开始人们把自己拍的家庭录像放到网站上和朋友分享，后来越来越多的人开始上传自己珍藏的影视作品，有些人甚至因此得到了知名电影公司的青睐。

dAVId注：非常牛逼的地方，以后我有视频就放那里去，不过貌似GCD也要封了它，毕竟就像Keso说的，要在那上面找点不道德的内容太Easy了

    5  www.blogger.com(博客网)
    创建：埃文·威廉斯，1999年，美国
    用户：1850万固定访客
    关键词：博客
    在发明博客软件的时候，威廉斯只是把它当作一种无聊消遣的玩意，他根本想不到博客成为了本世纪最热门的互联网，并发展成为一种个人媒体。

dAVId注：同样最早的BLOG网站一直被GDC封着，难得能上是他们机房故障….

    6  www.friendsreunited.com(友聚网)
    创建：史蒂夫和朱莉·潘克赫斯特夫妇，1999年，英国
    用户：1500万
    关键词：校友录
    朱莉想知道同学们毕业后散落何方，她的程序员丈夫设计了这个网站。起初每天的点击只有个位数，直到2001年，一家电台介绍了他们的网站，校友录模式很快风靡全球。

    7  www.drudgereport.com(德拉吉报道)
    创建：马特·德拉吉，1994年，美国
    用户：每天800万到1000万页次浏览
    关键词：个人媒体
    1998年，德拉吉在个人网站上独家爆出克林顿的“拉链门”事件，并在此后半年内引导着美国舆论走向，从此，数以百万计的网民养成了上德拉吉网站看新闻的习惯。

    8    www.myspace.com(我的空间)
    创建：汤姆·安德森、克里斯·迪沃尔夫，2003年，美国
    用户：1亿
    关键词：社交网络
    “我的空间”打造网民的网上家园，它集合了网络社区的全部功能，增加了分类广告和记事安排，这使得它的日访问量高居全球第四。

dAVId注：非常好的BLOG，相比Live Space更大的自由度，当然暂时我还不会考虑开一个myspace

    9  www.amazon.com(亚马逊书店)
    创建：杰弗·比索斯，1994年，美国
    用户：超过250个国家和地区3500多万用户
    关键词：网上书店
    说起亚马逊，15年前，人们想到的是世界第一大河；15年后，人们更多想到的是世界第一大书店。作为全球电子商务的代表，比索斯在1999年成为美国《时代》杂志“年度风云人物”。

dAVId注：很多国内的程序员通过它购买国外的原版计算机经典巨著，不过它在国内的影响还不够

    10  www.slashdot.org
    创建：罗伯·马尔达，1997年，美国
    用户：每月5500万
    关键词：科技论坛
    马尔达被美国《时代》杂志评为世界百强创新家之一，他的网站也成为全球访问量最大的网站之一，他最大的发明是开创了网民自行编写网页文字内容的先例，引来谷歌、维基百科等网站纷纷效仿。

dAVId注：我个人非常喜欢的一个介绍最新技术的地方，也是我RSS必订阅的内容

    11  www.salon.com(沙龙网)
    创建：大卫·塔尔博特，1995年，美国
    用户：每月2500万至3500万访客
    关键词：在线杂志
    1994年，塔尔博特所供职的报纸罢工，他和一些同事试着办起了网上报纸。尝到甜头以后，塔尔博特索性辞去报纸美编职务，专心做起了网上媒体。

    12  www.craigslist.org(克雷格列表)
    创建：克雷格·纽马克，1995年，美国
    用户：每月4万亿页次浏览
    关键词：分类广告
    网站页面简单到近乎丑陋的地步，只是一块密密麻麻贴满各种小字条的公告牌。然而千万不要小看它，这可是全球最早也是最大的免费分类广告网站。

    13  www.google.com(谷歌)
    创建：拉里·佩吉、赛吉·布林，1998年，美国
    用户：每天10亿个搜索请求
    关键词：搜索引擎
    “google”如今在牛津英语字典里不仅是名词，而且是动词。以搜索引擎起家的google正在发展成为庞大的网络帝国：邮件、新闻、聊天等工具不一而足。

dAVId注：如今我的网络生活能离开它吗？请别和我说还有baidu，那不是一个境界的东西！

    14  www.yahoo.com(雅虎)
    创建：大卫·菲勒、杨致远，1994年，美国
    用户：4亿
    关键词：门户网站
    yahoo大概是最早被世人所知的网络神话之一，它曾创下平均每天网页点击数34万亿的纪录，它的门户网站模式在互联网上被一再克隆。

dAVId注：请别混淆国外的yahoo和国内的垃圾雅虎，国外的yahoo是非常牛逼的地方！

    15  www.easyjet.com(易航网)
    创建：斯蒂里奥斯·哈吉-艾奥诺，1995年，英国
    用户：去年乘客3000万人次
    关键词：廉价航空
    easyjet利用了互联网这一最为快捷经济的销售渠道，在短短几年里便跻身欧洲大航空公司之列。

d 的 世 界 ™ 开张也超过1年了，访客数量还是很可观的。

谢谢大家的支持:)

因为有了另一个纯技术的Space所以这里以后会偏向生活和最新的Space相关新闻。

我也知道越来越多的人开始使用RSS订阅，所以看的人多发表观点的却不多。希望大家以后多留言哦 😛

这几天把Live messenger 升级到了8.0.0812，添加联系人的BUG基本解决了，大家也可以通过这里的Friends模块来结交新朋友。
