Hidden Track Podcast #4: Six Degrees, Friendster, and the Dawn of Social Media

Send us Fan MailDonate to the GoFundMe for my feature-length film, The Cabin!Welcome to the fourth Hidden Track Podcast!For this show, we go back to the bygone era of the late 1990s and the dawning of social media. Today's TikTok, Instagram, Threads, and Facebook owe a debt of gratitude to the originals. Six Degrees and Friendster blazed the trail for what was to come in social media. What made them special? Why did they not last?These are short-form shows, clocking in at roughly 10-15 minutes. They will cover a topic or two, likely previously covered on the In My Footsteps Podcast. These are subjects that were part of Top 5's or other list-form segments and deserve a more in-depth look.Enjoy this podcast snack and send your mind back to the days of dial-up internet, chat rooms, Trojan viruses, and the dawning of social media.To support me and the show, become a member on Patreon. Or you can support my work and Buy Me A Coffee!Helpful Links from this EpisodeBuy My New Book, In Their Footsteps!Searching For the Lady of the Dunes True Crime BookHooked By Kiwi - Etsy.comDJ Williams MusicKeeKee's Cape Cod KitchenMSFTS CommunityKingfisher Hotels Cape CodChristopher Setterlund.comCape Cod Living - Zazzle StoreSubscribe on YouTube!Initial Impressions 2.0 BlogCJSetterlundPhotos on EtsyListen to Episode 251 hereSupport the show
