House/Wilson Requests and Recs

I have no idea if this is appropriate or not, so if mods think it should be deleted I understand.

So, I am writing my final paper for my anthropology class called Media, Culture, and Society; in it, we're supposed to pick a media technology and talk about how it affected society and culture (or continues to do so). I have chosen LJ, with a focus on how it's affected fan bases and fandoms, House included.

I would like to know everything you guys know about the evolution of the House fandom. If it's House/Wilson specific, well, then, all the more fun for me to explore. ;D How did you first hear about the fandom? Where did you go to first? What were the qualities of all the communities you've gone to (for example, ff.net versus LJ )? What WERE the biggest hubs of fans when you first joined, in your point of view? What are the CURRENT hubs of fan activity, in your opinion? What made you pick LJ as your resting place, or one of them? Do you think the LJ fandom has any affect on the show?

Any and all thoughts, opinions, links, histories, and stories would be loved. <3 <3 If you'd rather comment on my personal LJ, then click on my submission of Wilson dreaming about House.

Thank you~!
