YouTube - The Complete Profile
One of the companies that would easily classify as a poster-startup for Web 2.0 is YouTube. Since its launch in February 2005, it’s managed to attract crowds, cross milestones, create fads, top lists, and even get a mention at this year’s Emmys!

The UI is dirt-simple: Drag-and-drop any WAV or AIFF file onto The Leveler's application window, and a few moments later you'll find a new version which just sounds better.
