In our second podcast series, Lady V and Katie cover the (brief) history of online fandom and how it got to where it is today. In this episode, we travel back to Web 1.0 when websites looked like a PowerPoint deck, YouTube was Albino Blacksheep, Fortnite was RuneScape, Anne Rice didn't like your fanfiction, and 4chan was still an anime forum. We also discuss the Yahoo! Answers shut down and how, no, George Lucas doesn't get enough appreciation, actually. Yahoo!
