Culture and Sociological Experiments: LiveJournal
Note: This is from my current active journal, which is here. I decided to post it to my old LJ, since it's actually about LJ. I hope I cut-tagged this correctly, it's been a while since I used this thing.It's interesting to me that LiveJournal is about to move to an open membership base. I am very ( Read more... )

Just to let people know - if you notice that I have dropped you from my friends list, please do not be offended. I have very little time these days for reading at the computer, and very few journals which I actually read frequently. The ones I read the most have remained. Most of my original friends list has been cleared out for this reason - this ( Read more... )

haven't been around for a while, I know, and for those who have been reading my private journal, here's the scoop: our domain name got hijacked! Stolen right out from under our noses with 11 months left on the registration we paid for. After much wrangling, arguing and swearing, we managed to get a new domain FREE from the company that sold us the ( Read more... )

Well, I finally found a journalling software that I can use with our provider. I couldn't use MoveableType (although I really wanted to) because our server doesn't have the correct version of SQL available. I can, however, use Greymatter. Turned out to be not too-terribly hard to install on the server, and I'm having pretty good luck with the whole ( Read more... )

working with my styles again. Helps me to focus myself, get back into a good frame of mind and ready to move back into the world. My graphics are getting better; a combination of brand-new, up-to-date killer software and tons of practice with the cards and the site ( Read more... )

Thanks, it's November and I don't appreciate having to worry about tornadoes at this time of the year. Whoever's working the storm switch this evening needs to stop drinking and get back on the job right now.

I have a dilemma. I like LiveJournal - I really, really do. I tried all kinds of journaling sites before I stumbled onto this one, and I hated them, they were a large pain in the ass. I really like my friends lists, and the communities ( Read more... )

to let folks know that I'm still around. Every so often I just need to disappear, when things are really bad for me. I promise i'm healthy and fine; I just needed to be away from people in general. I did read, and appreciate, the offers of help and friendly ears from everyone that offered on and off LJ, and I hope no one was hurt when I didn't take ( Read more... )

There's a lot in my head today, and none of it is coming out very well. I feel like my brain is running around in tight little circles today - frantic. Not to worry anyone, but I think I'm approaching my saturation point lately. I feel ready to run.

The funny thing is, nothing is bad. Oh, we're pretty tight here, moneywise. There's not a lot to ( Read more... )

Paul fixed the soundcard and the video card on my machine this evening. This is a Good Thing; I can now listen to Shoutcast on my machine, and can play Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 when I have a spare second. Which isn't often ( Read more... )
