The site, in 2003

A review aggregator for film and television, where critics' reviews are sorted into fresh or rotten.

Its name comes from a scene in the 1992 Canadian film Léolo. By 2018 almost a third of US adult moviegoers said they consulted the site before going to the cinema.

In 2003: Run full time by its three Berkeley founders since April 2000; IGN Entertainment bought it in June 2004.

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.
