@cameronneylon does CiteULike count? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CiteULike looks like it closed in 2019, but I can't remember when I stopped using it. I'm not sure if the general scholarly reader will remember this, though. Even FriendFeed was a short bubble compared to Science Twitter
I even found a blog post by you 😅 https://cameronneylon.net/blog/why-the-web-of-data-needs-to-be-social/

@biocs I think CiteULike is a little more complex a story because it gets tied up with market challenges after the Mendeley purchase but its a good find. And yes, I keep following rabbit holes back to my own blog - where apparently I didn't actually document many closures, just the purchases...hence the call for help! :-)

@biocs @cameronneylon ah, good one! I was thinking about Connotea, but I think that was MIA for years in 2015 already (here's some old blog posts, and adding a few more in the next hour: https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/tag/citeulike)
