50 Best Web Sites
Flickr, the online system for storing, organizing and sharing digital photos, won the title of best website of 2009 which gives Time magazine.
In the top positions are also Delicious and Twitter social network.
One of the innovative ideas implemented by Flickr find the “collective mark” that greatly eases the problem of image searches.
Flickr portal leverages the collective wisdom that helps to label the pictures, and we are talking of over 3,000 million images in the photographic archive.

In third position we find Delicious, which is a marker and can behave like a search engine.
Google is in eleventh place in the twelfth and YouTube, followed by Vimeo, another video portal like YouTube, but where you can see “high quality in the work of many creative types,” such as that, according to Time, get in this portal’s successful American rapper Kanye West.
