A Look Back At The `00s!

[Catman]

Normally I don't like to reflect on the year or even the decade till after Christmas, but everyone seems to be in a rush to look back at the `00s. So, SHH shouldn't be any different.

Let's look back at the Bush years, the wars, the collapse of the economy, the first Black president, how the Internet made us stay longer hours inside the house, the rise and fall of chat rooms, the rise and fall of MySpace, the rise of Facebook, Twitter, social networking in general, the return of Apple, Steve Jobs, iTunes, iPod, iPhone, how jag was obsessed with Apple, the fall of Microsoft, how Malice still defends Microsoft, Xbox's red ring of death, the PS3, movies, music, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry's breasts, and of course. . .the birth of SuperHeroHype.com. Plus. . .much, much more, including how ComingSoon.net just never really caught on.

The Song of the Decade:

Myspace has not Fallen. Why? Because people still use it...although it may be defunct by 2012 (if sooner). And that's when I switch to Facebook.

This is the song of the decade, fool.

If I remember correctly(feel free to correct me anyone) Myspace is losing money...or it isn't making money....and Facebook is whooping it's ass. And Youtube...I can't remember. But I do know Facebook and Twitter are doing good.

I think the Hype predates the 00s. I've been posting since before Spider-Man 1. Can someone verify?

Spider-man came out in 2002?

I checked Google. Youtube and Myspace are indeed losing money.

Spider-Man was 2002, but they started filming around 2000, 2001 because I worked at the theater right before they pulled the Spider-Man/WTC trailer.

You're thinking of ComingSoon.net. Spider-Man Hype, the first incarnation of SHH, was launched in 2000 or 2001.

But I don't think Comingsoon and the Hype were originally affiliates. I think Coming soon bought the hype or something like that.

Both CS and SHH were created by Mirko and, I guess, to some degree, Malice.

Uhm... I didn't know that Microsoft fell. It must have been on another planet where Windows isn't still the main operating system and XBox isn't super-popular.

That thread was a month too early.

Well, Apple is a much bigger competitor now than in the `90s. Plus, wasn't Windows Vista a giant joke?

XBox isn't super-popular.

The Xbox is popular but it ain't no PS3!

Really? Windows is on top? Then why so many OS?

Windows 7.
Vista
XP
ME
98
95

I'm still running XP...windows sucks monkey nuts. APPLE.

I'm still running XP...

Most people are.

 

[enterthemadness]

the old computer here...it's now clean (no viruses now) and it's ME. Not plugged in though. It's a IBM Vista?

Of course it is. But it isn't big enough to warrant you claiming that Microsoft has fallen. It's like Pepsi and Coke. Coke has nothing to worry about and neither does Microsoft.

And I would compare Vista to those short little I-pods Mac had a while back. What's your point? Companies have misfires sometimes. Microsoft is actually in the process of creating another version of Windows if I'm not mistaken.

Windows is a super popular operating system. Of course it has to update itself regularly to address issues people have with it. Seriously, stop acting as if Apple products don't have their own technical problems. I've had both.

Mac sheep.

Spider-Man Hype actually started in '99, but the forums didn't exist until April of 2000.

I was still posting on "noorganicwebshooters.com" back then.

I see. Well, either way, the birth of SHH message boards.

hahaha. I had no idea that was even a real website. Was it owned by Mr. Parker and Bakerboy?

Macs are good if you don't have a real job

that site still around??

 

[Catman]

I doubt it, but it would be funny if it were.

 

[The Lizard]

Haha - no, it expired around 2003 I think. The official URL was www.no-organic-webshooters.com/ .

I posted there exclusively when it was still undetermined whether or not Sam Raimi was going to keep the organic webshooter concept used in the James Cameron Spider-Man script treatment from the early '90s (I was opposed to the organic webshooters, BTW). However, by late 2000 it became obvious that the organics were a done deal, so I gave up on that site and came to the SMH forums instead.

I started checking out Spider-man Hype back in 2001 I think, but I didn't register to the forums until 2002. Ah, good times.

Really? I didn't even know they were being used till I saw the movie.
