I wonder, where is everyone? Where do you hangout, that isn't in Alexa Top 1000? I feel like people get sucked into few huge sites (reddit, facebook, twitter, tumblr, etc.), while smaller communities slowly but steadily die out.
I wanted to like snapzu.com, but it significantly slowed down, once all I'm-leaving-reddit-lol users went back. Now only the frontpage is active and it isn't particularly interesting.
I always liked forums.selectbutton.net, but it's a very small and specific thing. Only civilized video game community that I have seen.
I trying to like hubski.com, but no one discusses topics I'm most interested in and the community is a bit weird. Worth checking out though, it's neat.
