Yahoo gets my vote. Not only for its longevity, but also for its  
ability to constantly expand and innovate in interesting ways. Even  
its acquisitions (Flickr, delicious (add in your own periods  
somewhere), etc) are interesting. Few are doing as much with RSS as  
they are.

Its design, while not mind-blowing, is consistently better than any  
other site used by hundreds of millions. Its information architecture  
and interaction design are for the most part strong. I can always  
find what I need and can use what I find. No other site I can think  
of weaves so many threads of data together so seamlessly.

It has its problems, sure, and some missteps, but 11 years out, it is  
still a web juggernaut.
