Think livejournal is "dying"? Want to build it back up?
siderea has come up with what she thinks is the optimal formula for LJ posts to build community:

I think I can safely say...
that the small birthday party we had yesterday was a success. Our little one laid in her crib still singing "Happy Birthday to you" for about 10 minutes after lights out. :)

Apple iTunes
