In 2001 the website was a mess and didn't look like it was very usable in the sense of being able to navigate for certain products.

In 2001 apple used a lot of META, LINK, and HTTP-EQUIV in they're code. In 2016 apple is using body, script, style, and div in they're code. In the code there is more differences in the breaking of the text using div.
Facebook has changed a lot not in just the name but also in the layout. In 2002 Facebook was known as about-face and you weren't able to login in.

The colors are more professional. In 2002 the font was about the same size, so you weren't able to tell which was headings and what wasn't if there wasn't color.

In 2006 the website was really messy.The page was cluttered with a bunch of pictures and no overall theme. There were ads on the side displaying other websites. In 2016 there is on big picture with some words, and a side bar with different links to different pages for they're products. In 2006 if there wasn't color you probably wouldn't be able to tell what words went with which picture. In 2016 the words are pretty much the same color and font but it is easy to navigate because they are in a list format.
