What are the seven wonders of the internet?

I am going to propose some obvious ones

Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page)

and

Project Gutenberg (http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page)

and

Internet Sacred Text Archive (http://www.sacred-texts.com/)

Essentially web resources that are so good that it would be difficult to imagine life without them.

What are yours?

Shirley, Google?

Shirley, Google?

I feel slightly dim now for not thinking of that, and don't call me Shirley.

For me, personally, www.leo.org would definitely be one. Best language dictionary ever.

Google seems to be a rather obvious candidate as well.

Youtube?

The seven wonders of the internet in descending order:

7. Porn
6. Porn
5. Porn
4. Porn
3. Porn
2. Porn
1. Porn

It had to be said by someone and I figured sooner would be better than later.

Ebay, Amazon, Myspace, Facebook. All have revolutionised use of the internet amongst a lot of people. Perhaps they are not the first in each genre, but have been the most influential.

Related to your Gutenburg and Sacred texts sites: IMSPL (http://www.imspl.org) for music.

IMDB I should also have thought of...

I second ebay and amazon as well as Youtube.

I can't say that I've ever used facebook or myspace, but any kind of social networking site definitely deserves mention, including dating sites.

The serious 7 wonders of the internet:

7. YouTube
6. MySpace
5. Deviant Art
4. Wikipedia
3. EBay
2. Amazon.com
1. Google

Here is the definitive list


NSG
NSG
NSG
NSG
NSG

And anyone who says different is a reactionary traitor who deserves to be forced to play NS2 for twenty-five hours a day until dead from boredom.

How? How can you maintain any semblance of social life without facebook? I thought you were, well, young....on reflection, if facebook is that central to me, I may have been at university too long.

I fear you cannot omit wikipedia; it has fundamentally altered perspectives upon the accessibility of knowledge.

very easily, I have a MySpace, but that's so people I went to college with can easily get my e-mail address. I haven't logged on more than once a month EVER

Already fixed it, I don't know what I was thinking.

Fair enough. It's probably a phenomenon of my age group, c.20, and below I suspect.

Well, you know, I chat on MSN, I send email, I text people and sometimes I even make phonecalls.... I like my diversity. And then there's always swingers' pages.

Besides, nobody I know is on facebook anyway. *shrugs*

4chan!

Ok, I kid, I kid. More accurately that would be the seedy underbelly of the internet from which memes emerge.

Ok, I kid, I kid. More accurately that would be the seedy underbelly of the internet from which memes emerge.

I think they have a case, they've caused some worldwide phenomena, though that's more a function of the internet rather than a feature, which would be message boards in general.

So...

Message Boards/Blogs
Email - it's changed the way business communicates, probably not for the better
Google - Christmas family debates weren't half as fun with Google on the i-Phone, "really, let me check that fact actually...", changed a lot
Classmates was actually the first Facebook type thing, basically a free, connected personal web page for non-programmers
Windows '95, can't deny that this pushed the Internet over the tipping point
Ammm... LEEEEROOOY JENNNKINS!
Not confident about this one but XML, where form became content and vice versa

What about the Rick Roll meme? that was pretty cool/irritating at the same time.
Msn (or some other instant messaging service), just for being able to communicate with family when you want to even if they're a long way away.

Lol Cats!

Lol Cats!

Yes, its a wonder they exist :p

I would say that Everquest/WoW drastically altered the way people play video games. AIM drastically altered the way people communicate. Both helped forge a pseudo-language of sorts. Napster ushered in the era of p2p and complete redefined the business model for the music industry, paving the way for the rampant success of iTunes. They're not websites, but they are applications that are dependent on the Internet and they have helped define it.

Agreed on both. I think seven may be far too small to name all the applications/websites that have changed culture and society in a big way.

There are EXACTLY seven wonders, strange as it is - the Big Five and the two Unmentionables. But if I told you the links, I'd be banned.

My second favorite one, though, named M--tspin, is amazing in that it's simultaneously an excellent visual explanation of how car engines work, a quick test of sexual orientation, and just an interesting discovery to make.

Hentai

Can someone explain that stuff to me? I never understood the fascination of looking at pictures instead of real girls.

There's something wicked and nasty-good about watching big breasted, nubile cartoon girls get fucked by monsters and tentacles. That's the goodness and sinful awesomeness of hentai. :D

Ah. You say "nasty-good" and I say gross. Fundemental disagreement I suppose.

limewire would be up there for making years like 2004 livable as would stumbleupon for basically giving me something to spend the rest of my life pressing

Where would we be without the lulz that they provide?

Remember THIS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNO6G4ApJQY) video?

And of course, there's also this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7liYfhRgXGk).

Ahh Anon, where would we be without you?

It would redefine double penetration.

Or triple...

but to review, the consensus I'm getting is Wikipedia, search engines in general, Ebay, Myspace (came before facebook), free porn, Napster (again, the first one, and this includes more free porn), and the chat revolution.

Ahh Anon, where would we be without you?

Happy?

Ah. You say "nasty-good" and I say gross. Fundemental disagreement I suppose.

It's human to disagree.

Happy?

Hey Anon has done some good. There was that fight against Scientology.

Myspace (came before facebook)
MySpace might have come before, but its not better. Facebook goes before MySpace on any list.

Well I am a guy so the things it would entail could be likened to other types of sex I'm not interested in.

food sex?

I like how the one thing thats worrying you about fucking a cephlopod is catching the gay :tongue:

It would redefine double penetration.

pfft they don't have that many tentacles, be a man!

Ahh Anon, where would we be without you?

happy

Fapping?
These are not the serious wonders, but the corporate ones.

The serious wonders could look like:

[quote]1) The WWW
2) E-Mail
Fair enough.
3) Illegal Downloading of music, films, etc
Not so sure about that one. I mean, how much have people lost to the RIAA for making illegal downloads?
4) Free Porn
What's not corporate about that?
5) IP Telephony
Or that, really. I mean, if google is a "corporate wonder" then why isn't skype or the like?
6) Online Gaming
7) Forums like NS.
Why aren't these corporate wonders too?
Hey Anon has done some good. There was that fight against Scientology.
That didn't really do much good.

You can't capture the Boxxy in a still pic.......it's just wrong. Wrong. *spaz*

In no particular order...

Social Networking (Myspace, Facebook, etc...)
Shopping/Buying/Selling (Ebay, Amazon, etc...)
Sharing of Information and Media (BitTorrent and the like)
Porn (literally)
Access to Information (Google, Wikipedia, etc...)
Connectivity (Email, Instant messengers, Skype, etc...)

Regarding JStor, I omitted it for the reason that, though it provides a corpus of academic journals, this is of interest only to academics, or undergraduates. Wikipedia does not possess such a limited appeal, whilst, moreover, wikipedia provides a bredth and depth of information the average internet user does not possess independantly, whereas the journals JStor provides are often replicas of those held by academic institutions anyway.

In an academic context, JStor has undoubtedly altered undergraduate, and postgraduate, study, profoundly, however, its demographic is simply too limited, and it acts as an adunct to extant academic libraries, as opposed to wikipedia.

Wiki is also not peer reviewed and prone to being hijacked or incorrect.

I would disagree with the use of "prone" in that sentence. I'm not going to rehash the same old story of Wikipedia having as many inaccuracies as Encyclopedia Britannica. I also disagree it is bent towards being hijacked, however it does have a greater risk because of the easy editing.

Wikipedia is really information for the masses that can't be screwed with, or just can't understand actual scientific research.

yes wiki is prone to be hijacked. I normally get bored and hijack between 10 and 20 articles a week. the goal is to see how long it last before it gets fixed. the trick is to make it look correct and look sourced.


The masses should not be allowed to own a computer much less access the internet.

"Just checking your defenses" doesn't work for hackers, and I'm sure it won't work for you. I think there needs to be checks in place for ips doing this, and bans. Of course there are way's around this, but this would get rid of 90% of people that are being assholes.

And its not illegal to edit an article that allows editing. it would be like me editing a copy of Linux so it doesn't work and making the bad copy available for download.

they never will never block access. Wiki is run by free source/access hippies. the most they ever do is temporarily lock an article from being edited and half the time when they do that its the bogus copy they leave locked up.


Also an encyclopedia is not a peer reviewed, so that argument does not phase me in the slightest anyone who quotes an encyclopedia, is asking to be corrected.

But my point still remains that it is access to large amounts of usually factual information for the common person. Anything that does this is given a thumbs up from me. I wish more people weren't ignorant retards, and Wikipedia goes some of the way to solving this.

College or University isn't a benchmark for intelligence.

I certainly don't see myself going to college or university in the near future, being in the final year of high school this year. Does this mean I should be a serf?
