Los 50 mejores websites del Mundo

La revista Time publica cada año los 50 mejores sitios web del mundo, pero no se guía por criterios de como están conformadas estos sitios, si no por su utilidad. Estos sitios web ayudan al lector a conocer más sobre su mundo, desde noticias internacionales, hasta páginas de del clima mundial.

La clasificación está basada en la certeza de las fuentes y la veracidad de su información. Todas las páginas web están en inglés porque la revista Time se publica en este idioma.
