Not in my experience. People put them somewhere on facebook.com or
skype.com or something, which makes them accessible through a very small
number of single webpages. And often without loggin in, those are not
actually available to anyone.
So as a user, it seems functionally the same except the particular hoops
for putting things online which are different in every single case.
