FTW.

The only argument might be to replace ebay with youtube. But, since google owns youtube, I'd actually just keep the four listed up there.

The first 3 are no-brainers. I'm going to go with cnn.com for the last one because it is where I have gotten the majority of my news for the last 10 years or so. I was tempted to not go with that site b/c its really gone to shit in the last 6-9 months, too much 'local news' links, video crap, and pop culture news. I used to visit CNN because it was a place I could go without having to be overwhelmed by the redneck trailer trash bullshit in the local news, or without having to care what's the latest with Britney Spears(there's other sites that report on that a lot better!)

Damn, I'm turning into an old curmudgeon aren't I?

This is pretty much it right here.

Youtube and Wiki might bump somebody in another year or two, but these are the big four.

If we are talking all-time and not just today, I find it hard not to include Yahoo on the list. Also, I know I'll get shredded for this one, but when ESPN hit the internet with the live box scores and headlines of the day it became my daily routine to open up their site each morning. It's just barely going to miss the cut for me.

I'll go:

Somewhat of a sidenote, but Yahoo is really doing some amazing things on the development side. I know some people probably think of them as a remnant from ten years ago who got their lunch served to them by Google, but they're really back on the map as far as being a leader in the web space these days.

I can't speak for most of their site, but the fantasy sports stuff is awesome now. I love the drag-drop interface, and the auto-complete function for adding offline draft results is a god-send.
