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.

Reading my f'list now, because I've missed the life updates on LJ of a friend who isn't on Facebook. I logged into my e-mail, found out she was in town, and then checked her LJ for updates on her life.

I feel bad that while I've been saying I hate Facebook, for the past few years I've gotten used to it. I have to admit the interface is nice, easier to use than LJ and Twitter. Everyone seems to be on Facebook these days. On LJ the only updates I usually see are from a vintage ads community. I should probably take that off my reading list.

When I log into Livejournal, when used to Facebook, I have to find myself remembering that I can't "like" posts. I won't be getting a red update about someone tagging me on LJ.
