Chat rooms were an integral part of the Internet’s sense of community up until the mid-2000’s. There was a time when most sites at least had a forum or an Internet Relay Chat set up. These were forums in the Roman sense of the word, meant for discussion and business purposes. Portals to find specific chat rooms and forums were at one point our primary (if not only) method of accessing specific demographics. If you wanted to advertise to baseball fanatics, you bought a banner ad on baseball-fever.com. If you were trying to profile comic book readers, you went to community.comicbookresources.com and asked questions.
