Twitter's Fail Whale is an example of the last. I was surprised how long the good will lasted. Twitter started in 2006, the SXSW where it gained a lot of traction was in 2007, FailWhale looks like it was publicaly "named" in 2007/2008 and they discontinued it in 2013. The image itself was a stock image they bought.
