It's funny, these geocities sites were horrible but they provided a way for people to express themselves on the web.

MySpace tapped into this also , allowing people to change their page background, have autoplaying music etc.

The facebook/Twitter came along and spoiled it by prioritizing usability. Now basically everyone has an online presence that looks identical to the point of being sterile. Hell even 90% of wordpress sites look exactly the same.
