You could answer questions, make friends and customize your page which was fun and expressive. There was really no censorship and we could be ourselves, People would just match wits and verbally duke it out or crack jokes. The polls were enlightening and the site was a blast. Then one day without warning,... access denied. We panicked! Everyone used aliases so many of our friendships were lost in cyberspace and we each had a cyber soda funeral and grieved. (. I painted my tin foil hat black for a month... I was affected by this!) Sodahead was flowing for about 7 years- some of us got real close. It was a travesty, and if the government bought the contents- we are all screwed and on a list somewhere... just kidding.
