It was very user generated. And the search engines facilitated that, giving you very diverse results. This was long before the utter decline that is the current "authoritative" sources boosting. Now we're all herded into a few large web sites and social networks. It's a very sad state of affairs.
Would be cool if someone made a search engine that actively preferred weird unique websites over large centralized ones. But that might just end up showing a bunch of spam at this point. :/
