#51, OF COURSE, IS ANY SITE THAT HAS THE OBAMA THEME SONG: Time Magazine again presents its list of the 50 Coolest Websites, and we are nowhere near it, though our friends at Deadspin are. Do sites like MySpace and YouTube really need to be listed? To me, those sites, along with Google, IMDB and Wikipedia, are so firmly established and essential as to need no further kudos . . . though, I imagine, I'd have said that about Yahoo back in 1997, Salon before it went behind the subscription wall, or CDNow back in the day.

So maybe that's a better question -- what's a site that used to be essential to you but is no longer?
