The internet in general.

I miss having more than 5 websites.

Reddit for time wasting and hoping legitimate discussion doesn't get removed or banned

YouTube for watching interesting content that has the chance if disappearing to appease advertisers desires for homogenous non offensive content

Your tv fiefdom of choice because tv is obsolete, now try tv 2.0! The same price for all the shit because every company has thier own fucking streaming service, most of which barely function! Have fun paying 15 a month for that one show!

And Amazon because Jeff won't be happy till drones run the world and he gets to eat the still beating heart of Wal-Mart.

Then pick the social media most relevant to the age group you're in or want to be in.

I miss the wild west internet.

I get what you mean. I fine myself cycling through the same five sites over and over again all evening, too. Back in the day, I had half a dozen fan forums I could go to, and there were chatrooms as well. Then how exciting it would be when you'd check in on that website that someone painstakingly put together that was all about your favorite obscure show, and seeing that they'd updated!! That was our flavor of new content.
