    MySpace and LiveJournal as well, but I am 99% LJ is mostly around for the benifits of George R. R. Martin

      thought Livejournal got taken over by Russia around 2008ish?

      I have a hilarious permanent account on LiveJournal cause I wanted to keep it as a time capsule. This was so long ago, I actually mailed a check to Livejournal to pay for my stupid account to be permanent! So of course it’s just sitting there.

    Yes and no. The domain is still up, but it just a stupid Gawker-like blog. No user posted content. An ad company bought the domain uses it for blog spam.

    I still find Slashdot relevant! It doesn’t feel like it faded into irrelevance, only that it stopped growing (it reached critical need mass and that was it)

    Only multiply isn’t anymore. Actually liked it. You could upload music and videos to share. I wonder why it’s closed…

  Facebook did it, Twitter and Reddit are next.
