looks the same from year zero.

at an aggregated scale the excess audience/time spent has always gone social because its what people do.

would remove the flashing comet of gator.com. slipped through when nielsen wasn’t paying attention to their definitions.

Applied creativity at it’s best.

A dry subject turned into something fantastic. A bit overwhelming on first view, but it brings you back in to look at the details.

Thanks for the post!

Congratulations to whoever pitched the idea of creating this illustration. And one big back slap to whoever agreed to put it into place! Sure, it may not be totally accurate and scientific – but then this is just an illustration.

I love it! And thanks for reporting on it – I’d not seen it covered elsewhere.

That is just mesmerising!

Look at all those relatively little ones crumbling into oblivion every year. And the almost cancerous growth of facebook.

The best presentation of numbers I’ve seen in years!

How ironic that Microosoft and Mininova overlap…

It’s a great website! It is fascinating to see the growth of the likes of Facebook, Youtube and Google…
One interesting stat: CareerOne seems to have slightly more UVs than Seek but 6 times less Page Views in 2008..

there is a clear shift at the end of this year – i suspect because they only track particular sites once they become popular – hence you don’t get much insight into the true rise of fall of sites except the biggies…..

Sounds great – except it’s missing the first 10 years of data.
