Little under 2 years, and even in that time it wasn't consistently working. April 2008 was the last confirmed working yeti sighting.

Me too! My wife tried to hide under the seats and nearly died of embarrassment.

Most people have mentioned the big ones but here are a few I could think of
Staying at Dixie Landings resort and the Grosvenor Hotel in the hotel plaza (when they ran Disney buses to the hotels)
The original backlot tour at MGM when you went from the tram to the walking tour and you watched celebrities on TV screens like Warren Beaty, Goldie Hawn and Mel Gibson
The Disney village marketplace when it was much quieter and had shops like the gourmet pantry, Minnie Mia pizza and donalds dairy dip
The river boat ride at Animal Kingdom when they brought spiders and other animals round while you went round
Mickey’s Birthdayland with the show about baking Mickey Mouse a cake.
New Tomorrowland with Alien Encounter, Timekeeper and the Galaxy Search stage show (with giant Alien Elvis)
Eating at Adventureland veranda, odyssey and Tomorrowland terrace when you get free bags of chips
Going to the old Luau at the Polynesian resort - my dad got challenged by the Maori warrior

Oh I forgot about Timekeeper! That was a good one.

That was beyond good, it was great. It was Robin Williams at his best and whomever had to program the animatronic to find a way to imitate his gestures and body language was spot on. I truly hope they were recognized for their talent.
It might still be there if they just had put some seats in or at least swivel stools so the 360 degree was possible without having to stand for the whole show. After a day of walking around MK sore feet made for an uncomfortable experience. I'm sure it is what helped cause it's early demise.
