The site, in 2003
A UK charity's online library of films, photographs and sound recordings of the world's threatened species.
Launched by Sir David Attenborough in 2003, with Hewlett-Packard building the technology. It aimed to profile all 17,000 or so species on the IUCN Red List. It closed in 2019 for lack of funds; over 100,000 files went offline.
In 2003: Launched on 20 May by Sir David Attenborough, with profiles of 1,000 animals, plants and fungi ready. A prototype had been online since April 1999.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
