Do you remember certain sites/apps that were popular and just seemed to vanish. Does anyone remember or used or even still uses the following:
MySpace
Bebo
MSN messenger
Skype
Ask Jeeves
Tumblr
If there are others you think of, add them to the list.

I never used it, but Friend's Reunited. Probably 20 years ago, someone set up a fake profile in my name and put my occupation down as a rent boy. I must have pissed someone off. Never did find out who set it up, but it actually amused me. |

Ahhh limewire. Giving your computer more viruses than you can shake a stick at to find out it wasn't the song you wanted because someone can't label songs properly |

I like that you didn't get wound up about it.
It made me smile too (sorry  )
Yep...someone wasn't happy with you or maybe they thought you could take a joke even of it was a bad one. |

Myspace is still around and had a massive rehaul in 2011 although the value of software licensing (copyright) is worth more than the site itself. The chances there has been a website you have used that uses Myspace patient.
Spacehay is a copycat website of the old Myspace invented by 15 yo and currently has over 1 million active users. |

Yeah my mates did take the piss out of me for a while about it, so possibly someone did do it for a joke. Just got to take it on the chin |

We sexted each other on MSN Messenger extensively, especially when Mr KC was working offshore back in the day (if the rig had internet). Ahhhhhhhh, those were the days  |

I met my partner on Bebo and we chatted on MSN for ages! I used to love the little square webcam and the games you'd get on there.
I remember all the ones you mentioned. And Faceparty was one I liked but it was kind of like Fab and full of perverts who just wanted sex. |

"Faceparty!"
I got banned from there. They held a party at 3 mills studios in London, Doors opens at 9.30pm but they kept everyone out until gone midnight. I'd paid for my tickets with a credit card and did a chargeback and they banned me for life |

Someone said prodigits! I'm shocked. Thought i was only one.
Its dead now, but at its hayday it was brill. Long before facebook and tinder. But great for getting laid.
Not sure why someone mentioned tumblr. It still exists and going well. Just got rid of the porn was the issue that killed down tumblr. But still healthy - I had an anon blog which at it's peak had over 100k followers! |

I used to use that and met a few women and couples through it. Quite a long time ago now. "
