La Mort de Livejournal

[author_by_night]

So I had a conversation the other day about what's really changing (possibly killing, depending on your viewpoint) LJ, and honestly, I feel like everyone has different opinions. (Including me, hence the conversation I had.)

So I decided to create a poll on what's really going on, if anything. You don't have to still really be into LJ to participate - I'd like everyone's opinion.


[Poll #1971640][Poll #1971640]



I have made the results viewable only to me, so dish away. I'm also allowing anonymous comments as  you can't participate in polls if you don't have an account, and even if you do I realize you may not want to share your thoughts with everyone, especially if it does relate to drama.  I probably will make a follow-up post, but I won't name names, unless you want me to.

My journal at first documented my own personal life and journey through depression. It is now much more. It is a lifeline to friends I have made over the years and many of whom I now know in person. It is a community of friends for me, no more no less. Cosmetic or coding changes don't bother me. LJ has had its ups and downs but it is still the place I consider my online home after almost 11 years. And thankfully, I still have a core group of people I started with who are quite active. A website can shut down at any time, even a place like Facebook! Talking constantly about the anticipated death of Live Journal does nothing to keep it alive
