Answer to Question 1

Virtual communities provided an important service to the small number of people who regularly used the Internet in its early days. As the Internet and Web grew, many of these communities found that their original purpose as a place for sharing the new experiences of online communication began to fade.

Answer to Question 2

In the mid-1990s, virtual communities formed in Web chat rooms and sites devoted to specific topics or the general exchange of information. As the bandwidths available to Internet users increased, photos and video became commonplace additions to the discussions in these communities.
