Wikipedia's Growth Chart
This entry was posted on 05-19-2007 and is filed under uncategorized.
This chart from Alexa shows the English Wikipedia's rank compared to all websites. It is currently about the 10th most used website. I'd say importance came when it archived the top 1,000 in late 2003 and success came when it crossed the 100th line in 2005. Its position today can be described today as dominating. Other top sites are Yahoo, MSN, Google, YouTube, and MySpace. What doesn't get talked about much is, how much is Wikipedia worth? I mean how much would someone pay for the 10th most popular website? Also plotted is, the Crazy Aunt locked in the Attic - Bomis.com. And finally, as of 5/19/07, IHateWikipedia.com has a rank of: 5,250,117, but that's only 53 times worse than Wikipedia was back in late 2002.
