**Show in a Box**, often initialized to as “**SIAB**”, was the first open-source social-media software for video.
In this era, both _decentralized_ social-media networks and _centralized_ social-media networks were popular.
MySpace was a popular _centralized_ social-media network in this era — it had a lot to do with why another _centralized_ social-media network, YouTube, initially got popular.
Although, back then, YouTube was mainly used as a way of sharing videos on MySpace — because it was the only free video hosting website that supported playing video in (a non defunct technology known as) Flash.
A popular **decentralized** social-media network, in this era, was what was then called the **blogosphere** — the network of **weblogs** (often shorterned as “blogs“).
Although during this era, there was still some debate (that began in the late 1990s) over whether to call these “**web-logs**”, or “**web-journals**”, or “**web-diaries**”.
As the story goes — “**web-log**” won, got concatenated as “**weblog**”, someone (not knowing “**weblog**” = “**web**” + “**log**”) thought it was a concatenation for “**we**” + “**blog**” and shortened it to “**blog**”.
