And, hell, in my case it's often so cryptic that it's clearly only something that I understand, but yet I do it anyway. AHAHAHA. Livejournal likes cryptic stuff too, Melissa! THE SERVER MISSES YOU!
Well I guess not, you have been posting.
IDK DUDE, you know how I feel about twitter but like: a) my username is AWESOME b) sometimes it's really nice to be able to ask your flist like, where to buy DVDs when you are ~out and about~, although I guess I could do that on LJ, but ugh, more of a hassle than Twitterberry c) boredom reliever, at least I don't play tetris on my phone anymore?
SO IN MY WORLD WHERE THE UNIVERSE REVOLVES AROUND ME, IT HAS A PURPOSE. (And in my world, tumblr does not.)
I hate the way the internet is changing things, Alex. And I know we're a part of it and it is going to change, but I don't like watching the local news and listening to them tell me to follow them on twitter and check their facebook page for updates. I don't want the news in 140-character bursts, and I don't want to read about what Sally NewsAnchor thought of the flag day fireworks. I don't care. I want the news to be the news and the internet to be the internet, but I'm so far in the minority that it doesn't matter, because it's going to change and it's going to stay that way, if Time can have covers about Twitter and Obama's twitter can re-tweet the whitehouse twitter. That's the world we've somehow come to inhabit, and I'm really not sure I like it at all. A+ wording, I'm not going to elaborate. But I agree.
