  2. Communities History • The first communities on the net were (prior to Geocities and such) IRC to its variables, where the participants acted as “flat” entities.

Members could express more of their personality and fields of interest.

  3. Communities History – Cont. • From that point and forth, the communities started to supply web-tools to help their users create houses and profiles. • The pace of growth and the wealth of different kinds of people brought the communities to specialize in specific issues and to build neighborhoods subjected to them.

A message board to each neighborhood, current updating news, articles, community’s calendar, related links and a newsgroup. • Different members of the same neighborhood share same information and content. • Slash-dot to be the most advanced community, gives a podium to its crowds to state their opinions and to share their thoughts. But, all in all, it’s still “F L A T”.
