IMDb turns 18

Friday, 17. October 2008, 11:31:13

,

As they say on the site, IMDb today turns 18. It started off before internet browsers, as a series of scripts that made the collection of credits and other info collected on a usegroup searchable.
They also say the actual name came some 4 years later.

Another reminder of how new the internet is.

IMO one of the Top 5 sites on the internet. I look up stuff there all the time, everything from who played a minor role in some old movie to how tall an actress is.

I agree, I spend a lot of time on IMDb. I also combine it with wikipedia sometimes to get more info.

That is a cool link, there are some interesting names over there, much of those are as expected.
Thanx for sharing :smile:
