No, but really, are blogs dead? Blogs were very multifaceted in the sense that it successfully served as a dynamic method of uploading information, beyond the constraints of old static websites; in this way, blogs were the cornerstone of the Web 2.0.

Copypasta An umbrella term that generally boils down to a piece of text copied over and over again online in different contexts, with virtually strictly memetic purposes and spread in imageboards, forums, group chats and the like - sometimes as an original post, sometimes as a reply, always taken from somewhere else. This differs from a standard memetic response in that a copypasta is generally a much longer text than a simple, one liner meme. anonymous@undisclosed.example.com (Anonymous) Mon, 02 Apr 2018 04:18:57 +0000 http://xiongnu.sageru.org/wiki/doku.php?id=internet:dossiering_culture Dossiering Culture A particular type of hostility has recently taken the spotlight in internet social dynamics of online communities and social networks.

The unwary explorer may end up overwhelmed with an excessive amount of unwieldy slang, rendering the text to a jumble of esoteric tracts. This page attempts to clear the situation by explaining words and terms that are important enough to be contextually understood, but not important enough to warrant its own article anonymous@undisclosed.example.com (Anonymous) Fri, 13 Apr 2018 00:40:45 +0000 http://xiongnu.sageru.org/wiki/doku.php?id=internet:kopipe Kopipe Kopipe refers to copypasta within the context of the Japanese Internet and/or copypasta intrinsic/idiosyncratic/otherwise merely posted in a textboard.

The following is a (perpetually incomplete) list of wikis I find online that are of some interest, though I don't necessarily visit most of them regularly (or more than once). My priority is wikis that aren't really often listed elsewhere and are self-hosted, but may also include wikis from sites like Wikia and whatnot. anonymous@undisclosed.example.com (Anonymous) Wed, 08 May 2024 21:29:59 +0000 http://xiongnu.sageru.org/wiki/doku.php?id=internet:meatspace Meatspace Meatspace is a neologism that refers to the “physical world” in contraposition to the “virtual world”, which is described by the word Cyberspace.

This, for example, is a personal wiki. They used to keep some sort of popularity a few years ago, but most people that mantained one couldn't bring themselves to keep doing so over time.
