Do you remember what Facebook, YouTube and Google looked like years ago?
The Internet has evolved at an incredible pace. Websites that looked amazing less than a decade ago are absolutely hideous by today’s standards — even the websites that are now worth billions of dollars.

In order to demonstrate just how rapidly the Internet has changed, Ninja Essays put together a fascinating infographic that compares the most popular websites at launch vs. how they look today.

Today, they are some of the most beautiful and most efficient pages on the web.”
Google is a bit of an outlier, as its simple design hasn’t changed radically over the past two decades, but nearly every other website on the list is unrecognizable.
