Fun article, but you forgot CHAT ROOMS(!!!).
This has inspired me to to put “webmaster” on my portfolio and list myself as webmaster in the footer of any website I build from now on. Another title that was almost as illustrious as webmaster was “moderator” of a message board. I became a moderator for a now defunct comic book website/message board and I literally felt like I was made VP at Yahoo.
I miss 90’s internet so much it’s painful. I remember when search results weren’t dominated by super-corporate seo-on-steroids commercial entries. Meaning you would search for something and have no idea what to expect.
I feel like the old internet died along with Myspace, the last popular platform that let you be the mess that you really were.
