RE: The Internet Used to Feel Like a Place

That's exactly what I mean. The technology has changed dramatically, but the part I miss is that feeling of actually being somewhere with other people. The Internet was smaller, but somehow it felt more personal.

And I agree about Hive. For all the differences between the old forums and what we have now, there's still something about Hive that feels more like a community than just a feed. I've met quite a few Hivers in person over the years too, and that's always been one of my favorite things about this place.
