Netdisaster was a prank website that could simulate "disasters", such as meteors, UFOs, and spilled coffee, onto a screenshot of any given website. From February 8, 2005, to April 19, 2009, users of the website generated 111,669,334 disasters. The website won the Yahoo! UK & Ireland Finds of the Year 2005 award for Best Innovative Website. Netdisaster creator Denis Rionnet registered the domain "netdisaster.com" on January 25, 2005. The online engine became available on at 3:00pm on February 8, 2005, with only five disasters available. Buzz about the website spread rapidly on the internet in the following months. On May 27, Rionnet added the "Netdisaster-Yourself" feature, which creates HTML codes for webmasters to allow their visitors to "destroy" their websites. By July 15, ten million disasters had been generated on the website. More information...
