The site, in 2004
A Chinese technology group whose marketplaces serve business, consumer and retail buyers, plus logistics and cloud computing.
Its name comes from Ali Baba in One Thousand and One Nights, chosen for his universal appeal. Its New York share sale in September 2014 raised $25 billion, then the largest in history.
In 2004: Taobao, begun the year before in answer to eBay's arrival in China, was taking on the American firm. It would pass eBay in 2007.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
