I’ve been a member since 1986. I keep my membership mainly to read a few of the regional Well conferences. And for nostalgia. These days there are only a few conferences with regular discussions. It’s a treasure trove of historical cultural conversations on hundreds of topics. Think of it as a moderated usenet with an emphasis on tech & social communication. Many very interesting dialogs in the late 80s to mid-90s but the web and social networks superseded it by the turn of the century. It still has a feel of home. <g> To the question, it’s probably not worth joining anew unless you have a deep interest in the history of social computing and online communities.
