Born in a former Soviet research institute, in the 1990s it was the most popular website in Russia and was sold for more than $230 million in 2004. But Rambler was eclipsed by a dynamic new search engine, and its creator counted his profits in the tens of thousands of dollars. This story is part of a documentary series, InterNYET, by Current Time, exploring the history of the Russian web.
