I still keep in contact with a couple of people from Gooey (it shut down around 2002 I think), it was an excellent chat platform, you had chat rooms linked to whatever webpage you were on, very good for common interests. We even had a few meetups, I was working contract work at the time and had a 3 month spell were I travelled around the UK visiting various Internet weirdos.

Good point about deleting or edit your comments before deleting the post, I initially started by going through mine manually before using Redact and a few slipped through the net.
Napster and Kaza on dialup, PC set to auto redial after 3 hours to keep within the terms of my unlimited data plan.
Just over 20 years on one of the earliest “social media” websites, and I wasn’t exactly young when I joined that.
Redact is a very handy tool, I cleaned up lots of crap with that
Sadly it no longer supports messenger, and is a bit flaky on some links.
