Show HN: Electric Minds Reborn: pioneering virtual community, on a new platform

[amysox]

In 2001 Electric Minds was shut down by its then-owners. We, the community, raised money for a server, rebuilt it on software I wrote, and kept it alive for years.

I've now brought it back to life, complete with original discussions from 2001-2006, on a new software platform, the Amsterdam Web Communities System.

This is part history, part rebuild, and part experiment: can human-scale online communities still work today?
