So first, is it logical to assume that we, this, HERE, this is the fannish hub of the UNIVERSE?
Where fandom = female slash-friendly omnimedia fans, it seems to be, yes. Comics fanboys and some girls seem to hang out largely on web boards, either creator-specific ones or sites like comicbookresources.com (where Gail Simone's You'll All Be Sorry! forum is a great, fun space). Certain sorts of music fandom are served best by MySpace. Other than that, I don't know, but I'm sure everyone's got their own spaces. That's the other cool thing about the Internet -- the more you build, the more space there is to build on. Chew on that, grasshopper!
