Will they go the way of MySpace or will this truly blow over in a few week?

    It probably will just because it is still a very massive repository of data and at its core just a simple hobby forum site funded by ads–basically the second most ancient form of internet content next to a straight up fansite. I think that is what has made so many people so angry about this whole thing–the audacity of Reddit to act like * it* was providing the service (service being ad revenue) rather than its users providing it with avenues for money. Reddit needs to learn that it existed at our pleasure, and that without active users it offers literally nothing.
