mofo554 0 #1 April 22, 2005 For anybody that knows a bit about the history of this Website, I need a bit of help... For my final paper in a political modeling/complex systems class, I am examining the direction of Internet content. Essentially, the paper addresses whether or not the Internet has evolved into a medium which affects our culture in a positive or negative fashion (i.e. will people discuss environmentalism or Bob Ross) What I am wondering is how this site developed...particularly how these forums developed. Was there initially only a single forum, like a general skydiving forum? When and why did other forums (Bonfire, etc.) develop? Were there moderators present at the beginning, or were they created to keep content on topic? How did the site evolve as far as membership? In your opinion, has content on this site gone up qualitatively or have most substantive topics been discussed leaving us to debate who the most attractive freeflyer is? I appreciate any help you can give me with this.... Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
