LJ: A social success :-)
I've been thinking about the implications of a community like LJ. It is one of the most engaging communities on the web due largely to the friends feature. It seems so obvious after the fact but it has changed the way I think about the community. I have discovered people from diverse regions of the country that have similar interests, aspirations and concerns.
I feel kind of strange saying this. It seems like I am distancing myself from participation by observing the mechanism of communication. Oh well, until I get in the habit of posting more, what do I expect.
I'm going to heat up the really-good-from-scratch-chili-that-I-ma
for lunch and then get back to work. Did you get that I'm proud of my chili? :-)
