The site, in 2003

A Russian database of films and TV shows, with casts, crews, plot summaries, ratings and reviews.

The name joins the Russian words for cinema and search. Yandex bought it in 2013. A 2015 redesign drew so much criticism that the old one was back within four days. Since 2018 it has also streamed films.

In 2003: It opened on 7 November 2003, made by Vitaly Tatsiy and Dmitry Sukhanov.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
