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.

Google monopoly. Yahoo wins battle but loses the war. Youtibe is a partner.

@Burnley123 Yep, Google purchased YouTube in 2006. I'm impressed that Yahoo held the top spot for as long as it did. It's surprising to me that Amazon fell off the list in late 2018 and hadn't returned by Jan. 2022. I was under the impression that most people were upping their use of Amazon once the pandemic hit in March-April 2020. I would have thought it'd be enough to bring the site back into the Top Ten.

@Rutterman Me too. However, it's a chart based on number of clicks rather than money made. Amazon is by far the world's biggest online store.
