If I have to pick just one, Hothothot.com! It was the first live e-commerce site I ever saw, the first site that accepted credit card payments, and the first (other than perhaps some technical demo site) that used HTTPS.

I'm pretty sure I originally found it via Cool Site of the Day, which back then was the first page I went to every morning.
