I suspect most of the social sites will be replaced by the next best thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342376 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 09:33:18 +0000 ladyfingers 342376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I guess. I just don't have a lot of faith that anything currently popular on the Internet can survive that long. 20 years is a lot of time.</p> <p>ETA: I think we could have something LIKE Wikipedia, or Wikipedia in a different incarnation. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342357 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 09:20:11 +0000 autumnlove 342357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Google, ESPN, CNN, Apple, Wikipedia.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342352 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 09:18:44 +0000 mrbee 342352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladyfingers: what about Wikipedia? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342351 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 09:17:36 +0000 ladyfingers 342351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly? None of them. Except maybe Google. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342103 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 06:00:54 +0000 hellobeeboston 342103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only one that i think could make it is google. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342090 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 03:39:52 +0000 loveisstrange 342090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think that anything not social media has a chance. FB, Tumblr, Twitter, Pinterest, etc... they'll be gone. I also think outdated companies like MSN and AOL will be gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342088 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 02:52:07 +0000 sunny 342088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think websites that are part of a larger offline company will also stay popular. For instance ESPN pretty much owns sports in America so I think their website will remain really popular. There was a recent article in BusinessWeek that discussed ESPN. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-websites-that-are-currently-popular-do-you-think-will-still-be-popular-in-20-years#post-342086 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 02:43:04 +0000 mrbee 342086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looking at the list of popular US websites... the only one I know for sure will be around is Wikipedia:<br /> <a href="http://www.alexa.com/topsites/countries/US" rel="nofollow">http://www.alexa.com/topsites/countries/US</a></p> <p>Maybe also IMDB. Basically anything that involves a database of valuable data I see having a long lifetime. Everything else feels kind of transient to me.</p> <p>What websites that are currently popular do you think will still be popular in 20 years? </p>
