Viaweb, obviously. Wikipedia says amazon.com was founded both in 1994 and 1995. Or maybe Windows 95?

- btilly 16y agoThe right starting date is 1993. Because that is when the first commercial online site came online. However that company got sold to AOL in 1995. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Network_Navigator http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Network_Navigator for details. The second company to try to make money on the web was Netscape. It was founded in 1994, however its IPO was in 1995. So that is two reasons why 1995 is important at the beginning of online commerce.
