And as others said, with the advent of Facebook and even Tumblr, you don't really need fansites anymore because you can just make groups on those sites. I also liked GreenWillow's site too.
Replacing fansites with social media is a joke.

At a fansite you:

*Share your fandom with other people, and let them write in the guestbook.

At social media, you start a fangroup. But after a while, as more people join, the discussion suddenly moves focus to topics like "Who knows who?".

Today, places like Deviantart may be the best things if you want to share more than just fanfiction.
