Could you please explain that part of your post?<BR/><BR/>Just my opinion of course but...<BR/>I see nothing wrong with interactive and "general" anime/other related-sites rather than a shrine to any one show or game or whatever. Usually the more interaction (things to see and do) the more fun a website is and this goes for anime fansites as well.<BR/><BR/>But I do miss how people used to have specific shrines and such rather than generalized sites.<BR/><BR/>The link <BR/>http://www.shii.org/yurie<BR/>doesn't even work BTW<BR/><BR/>"Hard to gauge the overall trend but I'd like to think it makes people more open, confident, creative and simply empowers them."<BR/>I agree.<BR/><BR/>Yep, the larger or more popular a site is the higher chance it has of more drama. - k24601 aka Kara Ann Vortex, Queen Kara, and various other nicksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12415793.post-14706999479249826852007-12-11T16:33:00.000-08:002007-12-11T16:33:00.000-08:00sorry typing on N95 predictive text thingy hence w...sorry typing on N95 predictive text thingy hence weird typosFXXXXX MXXXXXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07786184819827969107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12415793.post-27133680982976790022007-12-11T16:31:00.000-08:002007-12-11T16:31:00.000-08:00Good question!

I suppose in general, it lowers the formality of the web and improves sites' interconnectedness... Hmm. Hard to gauge the overall trend but I'd like to think it makes people more open, confident, creative and simply empowers them.<BR/><BR/>Then again, the web is flooded with abandoned or low-quality blogs etc. which way prevent better river from gaining the exposure they deserve. Having said that, the web is much better linked and indexed now so I suppose you can't keep a good site down... people behave badly in groups over the Dunbar number. Easier to make communities, more large ones, more breakdowns?

Generally, the large amount of information you can have about an anime is easier to find and manage with centralized, user-editable pages such as Wikipedia and AnimeNfo.<BR/><BR/>The "centralized" bit is getting to be a problem, though. Eventually we might go back to decentralized sites with a standard metadata format.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
