Internet services are living things,
they interact with their environment,
they consume energy and
they live on through their genes: the basic concept of the service itself.
Some examples:
Netscape died this month. But its gene still lives in the next generation of Firefox.
Napster did die too, but it still has revolutionized the music industry. Court case against it, have been a Pyrus' Victory.
Altavista, DMOZ, Second Life might be dying at the moment.
Del.icio.us is alive and kicking.
Ning.com and Google prosper like Knol is announced(see the Ning based social platform Knolstuff ).
