The site, in 2006
A Russian video-sharing site, started in 2006 by two entrepreneurs from Oryol and often called Russia's answer to YouTube.
Gazprom Media took control of it in 2008. Its audience grew from 7.7 million in January 2022 to over 50 million by that March.
In 2006: Became a video hosting service, built by Oleg Volobuyev and Mikhail Paulkin, who had been working on it since 2004 or 2005.
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.
