Time has revealed its top 50 websites for 2010 and has cut a whole host of big-name sites from the list.
This year, WikiLeaks is favoured over Wikipedia, with Time noting the site "went from being a fringe site to being a central catalyst in the national news cycle almost overnight."
Another wiki-based site makes the list and that is the financial site Wikinvest.
Sites for sore eyes
In 2009, a number of popular sites made the list, including Google, YouTube and Twitter but it seems that Time has decided to go a little more leftfield this year and list up and comers instead of full-blown success stories.
Instead of YouTube there is Vimeo and FourSquare has been denied for the lesser known but very similar Gowalla.
Other sites which have made the list are: TED, Games.com and, interestingly, LinkedIn – a site which has been sidelined by many in favour of Twitter and other social networks.
The full list has been broken down into 10 categories (from music & video to social media) and can be found at Time.com.
Obviously, if Time was to do a top 51 list, then TechRadar would definitely be on it.
Ahem.

Actually, the word "website" originates from the old ways of witchcraft, and signified a good spot where you could find flies to use for the famous "Doopleganger Potion". The same drink that gave Ernest Hemmingway the ability to invent the modern turbine engine.

Sorry, not funny.
Hooray for Wikileaks.
Cool.
I bet they hadn't even heard of them prior to like a month ago...
who cares what Time thinks about the internet. these are the twits who still think twitter is cool ffs. having your website being listed as one of the best by a bunch of 55 year old out of touch white dudes isn't much of an accomplishment.
Problem establishment? :smug:

You're a good gimmick, keep it up.
