Web 2.0 Remembrance Thread (2004 - 2014)

Though technically we're still in this era, I view the rise of SJWism alongside HTML5, neural networks and other unnecessarily clever anti-fun bots as the birth of the "Semantic Web" and the death of Web 2.0.
ITT post shit, people, memes and other good shit you remember from the years I mentioned. Preferably pre-2011, as that's when the cancer really started to hit hard with the death of ED and the rise of ponyfaggotry. If you can't even remember this then your birth year begins with a 2 and you shouldn't belong here.
No I don't care if people born in 2000 are now 18 and "Generation Zyclon", the fact you have a 2 at the beginning of your birth year is like seeing someone who has a 5 at the beginning of their height; 1999 is the 6'0" of birth years.

Starting this thread with the event that pretty much kicked it all off. If this never happened then chances are kiketube would never have been created. Not that that's a necessarily bad thing, mind you, but it was this very happening that directly influenced the creation of YT in the first place.

Janet Jackson you got be kidding she's a old bag of shit now….ugly

opinion discarded

Another chill place destroyed by SJW's. They banned the word fag a while back. Used to be a pretty edgy place back in the early 2000's.

...

No it didn't. The fuck are you talking about?

lol no. Both Kiketube and the Internet Archive started their video hosting at the same time, literally the only difference was how they got money. Kiketube is privately funded while Internet Archive is publicly funded.
I still miss some things about the mid 2000s though, so keep postin'.

tee hee hee

The original YouTube creators admitted the original motivation for creating the site (which would just be a dating site originally) was looking for Janet Jackson's 2004 boob, and also some Thailand Tsunami disaster vids.

Reminds me of how moot has said time and again that with 4chan he wanted to make an english version of 2chan, when it always was about getting an @cock.li email. Getting a lot of porn posted on it was a secondary goal.

Well huh.

As you have got older, has anybody else started to feel the call of reddit? I mean, you don't have to give your real details, and there are some cool subs like watchpeopledie and roast me. Sometime Holla Forums is to slow and Holla Forums just gets crazier and crazier and I can't tell what is news and what is lies and larping.

What I miss most about 2010-2012 era 4chan

...

You millennial filth.

No you are aa fag's ShitStain.

W..What?

Nigga you got owned already so fuck off.

...

There are some some sub-reddits I like that pertain to hobbies I have that don't have related boards on any chan. Unfortunately after Pao, a lot of good ones got purged like fatpeoplehate. But it migrated to voat, so it doesn't really matter.

The problem has never been reddit, but the communities.
In fact, Reddit's interface works better than Twitter.

ponies were the best thing to happen to the internet

Twitter? You've gone to far. Get out. Out now, faggot

...

...

The number one reason why normalfags can't figure out how they're outed.

Searching "pthc" on Limewire.

If your earliest memories of the internet was 2004, then you should straight up murder yourself. Fucking kids … gtfo my internet!

Use WinMX, faggot.
