The site, in 2007

An online database where birdwatchers log what they see, giving scientists up-to-date data on where birds are and how many.

By May 2021 it held over one billion recorded observations, and it now gains over 100 million a year. Scientists have used it to study migration routes and the effects of climate change.

In 2007: Still limited to sightings from the Western Hemisphere. New Zealand joined in 2008, and the whole world in June 2010.

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.
