Anyway, I like LiveJournal because in its own way it brings back that sense of community I felt on BBS's. When I read an intelligent comment, I pull up their user info, and see who they know. It tells me a little about them. Then I read their journals a bit. People's journals are attached to their user names, so everyone feels some accountability for what they say.
Thank you for opening your living room to me. I don't say much (usually), but I read you every time you post.
I have a habit of lurking, and I post when I either know the person or feel I have something of relevance (well, a teeny bit <wry g> in my case) to add -- but in many cases that's not often; often someone else has said it (I have a knee jerk reaction against 'me too' posts). I'm quieter on-line than off, though <g>.
