here's the weird thing - i looked into jobs with livejournal, because i love livejournal so much, i'd love to work for them. it's owned by a very small company in russia. it had been owned by some guys in the states, but they sold it. the website is kind of confusing - like "about" livejournal and the staff. it's kind of unfinished. i thought it was unusual for it to seem unfinished, but when i learned that it was owned by a company in russia, a lot of things started to make sense.
i also really, really love livejournal. you and my friend rachel are the only ones who ever write anymore. it bums me out. i don't like how facebook has taken over everyone. even my friends with livejournals, they abandoned livejournal, but they post on facebook all of the time.
it's weird for me, when i post. i post almost every day, but it's mostly private, because i tend to ramble and complain a lot, because it feels like there's no one reading. it's not like an art, anymore. which is also a bummer.
that's interesting. i'm so glad google didn't buy it or something.
facebook is such a different place. i am surprised people find it comparable. but i always had weird things about people i know irl reading my livejournal, and on facebook it's all irl people (though half of them i've only met once, which makes it even weirder).
i know what you mean. i never really let people know i have a livejournal. i used to let more of my friends know - by "more" i mean about five friends, but i had this online life - with sharing what i really thought and how i felt and sharing photos, and then my real life with work and family and this compromised version of myself, and they were very separate things.
i liked facebook, when it was only my real friends, people that i felt comfortable telling the truth to, but then it became acquaintances and family members, and i can't really deal with it anymore. it's too wide of an audience. the sad thing is that most of my friends wont respond to anything else, even really good friends. they're so wrapped up in facebook, and it's so strange.
