Diaryland was an early blogging platform.
"Before Tumblr, before Wordpress, and around the time LiveJournal was just a twinkle in an emo teen’s eye, there was Diaryland, a blog site overseen by a cartoon cat named ‘Constable Whiskers.’" [1]
It had 2.2 million users at its height.
While not majorly popular in fandom, it was host to some fannish activity. See Zendom.
