    I’ve never stopped using web sites for those use cases.

    There’s something to be said for having full control over your online “home”.

      That’s fair but not everyone does it this way. I actually switched to twitter from RSS when google and the like basically pushed for it to go away and now I’m back on RSS with mixed results because twitter has become a dumpster fire. Having full control isn’t working out great for me and probably a fair few others.

      That is an amazing idea!

      We should make a site where people can set up their own internet homepage. Each person can have their own space on the internet! To give the users a sense of ownership let’s call it MySpace.

      I think my friend Tom will help design the site.
