It was a really nice idea. I wonder how often it got used. I think it was a conceptual relic of the [Jeff Goldblum era](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQmK1CnwOUI) of iMacs with instant Internet and personal webpages.
No, personal web pages have been replaced with Facebook accounts. Nobody wants or needs a website to show off photos and videos and personal updates anymore.
But nobody in the target audience will visit it, because it's some random website and not a Facebook page. So what good is a website that's never visited?
