Review (in 1996):

The Spot is a fun sort of online soap about twentysomethings, supposedly emanating from a seven-bedroom beach house with infamous history of wild partying and debauchery.  Typical resident: Tara, a 23-year-old film student trying to make it as a director.  Zany pet: Spotnik, a “Cyberian Husky”.  It’s a “microcosm of a generation”, so naturally there’s always a party cooking!  Visitor’s can read regular postings from the residents, see the snapshots (“Love on the Beach”), and read the diary entries (“Did Jeff realize I had missed my plane… the morning I found him in bed with Tomeiko?”).

It’s pretty much like your own life, probably, but you may enjoy visiting anyway.  This exremely glossy site is the brainchild of Fattal & Collins, a California advertising agency that is perhaps now deciding what to do with all the fans it has attracted.
