Back in the day, I had a Livejournal blog where I kept in touch with a few dozen friends and acquaintances. I used it to push out updates that I thought people might find interesting, when they had the time to read. I used to post about once a day. Reading back through those posts gives a decent feel for where I was and what I was doing at the

Some of us are still using livejournal. I'm still following the exploits of a number of my friends via lj, and my lack of postiness has more to do with me and where I'm at now, than with lj waning.

I share your perspective. Facebook has the people without the substance; LJ enables substance but lacks people.

I continue to post here now and again, hoping to foster whatever community might be here to rekindle. I use FB to let the far larger group know that i'm still breathing, and to gather a pseudo-random <1% sample of whatever noise is there. I've given up on the process being anything near perfect or efficient; i trust that it's better than one-on-one emails, only because of the time that would be required, and the fact that certain relationships don't bear it. It is what it is.

I encourage you to lean on the "journal" part for its own sake, and consider what remains of the "live" part merely a bonus. :)
