Another Social Network Bites the Dust

It appears that social network Sconex is no more.

Never heard of it? You're not alone. Admittedly, I am not familiar with it myself, but reads:

Sconex is the unofficial website for your high school - a place where you can read about your classmates, share stuff with your friends, and communicate with people from your school and nearby ones.

Sconex was purchased by lack of interesting content was likely the cause for its failure.

The huge success of MySpace and Facebook in recent years is also a likely factor.

I'm thinking a lack of interest from the kids in anything school-related may have been another. You know how kids can't wait until school lets out? I don't think it would be a stretch to assume most kids are not eager to race home after a day at school and get on a social network that is school-related. Their parents are already likely hassling them about getting their homework done as it is.

I wish the site was still up for perusal, giving me a better feel for what the world is now missing, but it appears to truly be dead, leaving nothing but a lifeless "address not found" message in its place.

Someone at Alloy teen.com. Sadly, this tip appears to be the only thing that has gotten people to notice that Sconex is M.I.A.
