Animated time-lapse chart illustrating how radically the Internet landscape has changed over the past three decades. The video moves quickly from one month to the next and lasts for approximately two-and-a-half minutes. Fascinating stuff, in my opinion. Cool music too.

I wasn't aware of it either. Another surprise to me is that only one adult site made the Top Ten and it didn't happen until late 2018. I'm also surprised it's Xvideos, not Pornhub.

Do you think this is because they were not "known" sites back then? Like porn was seen as horrible terrible evil....those sites were kind of obscure.

@JaggedLittlePill That's entirely possible, I think. XVideos and Pornhub, the "adult" sites I hear most about, weren't launched until 2007. There was plenty of porn available prior to that, but the sites that hosted it were more obscure, as you suggested, than the two I mentioned. That's how I remember it anyway.
