Man, I miss those, reminds me of being a teenager. I think they never survived because it was such a tenuous balance, either you didn't have enough people and it was a ghost town, or you had too many and it was a free for all. I feel like things like facebook groups and twitter kinda solved those problems by wrapping them in a larger ecosystem, but at the cost of feeling corporate and generic. The wild west internet couldn't really last, but it had a lot of charm.
