The site, in 2008
A web game in which a cartoon genie works out which real or fictional character you are thinking of by asking a string of yes-or-no questions.
Engineer Arnaud Megret built it in 2007 as a hobby project called Devinettor, and it learns from every game it loses. Made by France's Elokence, it became famous across Europe in 2009 and in Japan in 2010.
In 2008: A year after Megret's first version, the renamed genie was guessing in English as well as French.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
