Do people still post in LiveJournal? I know my wife still visits it, to talk to other teachers in her teacher community. Has LiveJournal become outdated by the quick and easy Twitter/FaceBook status updates? Why take the time to write out a lengthy report of a day/week/months events, when you can write about what happened just seconds later in

Comments

I barely use LJ for blogging, but I do still actively visit the communities. But yes, I've moved to WordPress, cancelled my paid LJ subscription, and use Twitter/Facebook more often than anything.

Okay, the spam showing up is hilarious.

I read LJ. I don't read back through Facebook very far, though.

When I came back here and saw I had three replies, I was like "oh!" Then I clicked to read them and the first one was spam... (spam already, good god) and I was like, "oh." It practically cemented the whole "LiveJournal is dead" idea for me. Thank god you two showed up!

I totally feel the same way - haven't updated my personal site in MONTHS, and it's supposed to exist for professional reasons! i just wish FB would allow a few html formatting tags in posts.

Also that spam comment is just deliciously ironic.

I still post. I just haven't had much to say the last coupla'...years.

I'm still here

I check it almost every day, but I don't post often because I use LJ as a true journal. I've always used it as a place to write long pieces of soul searching self-writing. But I don't have much time for that. Facebook is a better source of chatty social updates. I had one other friend who was posting on LJ all the time, but now even he seems to never use it. I even changed my theme recently, and no one probably sees it. But I see it, and that's what matters to me. I'm all about aesthetics, which Facebook doesn't have.
