Facebook and Twitter have cannibalized the popularity of platforms like Blogger and LiveJournal, but I still like having a place for longer-form writing, meant for nobody in particular but available to a larger (though still somewhat filtered) group of friends and aquantances.

Facebook updates can only be 440 characters long, so it doesn't take much of an investment for a casual aquantance to follow your status updates. Someone has to give a litte more than a casual fuck to stay abreast of one's longer-form LJ, Blogger, Tumbler, or WordPress updates. But because of these new micro-update platforms, nobody updates their LiveJournals anymore, so I barely ever log on myself to update my own or read anyone elses, and the whole network falls apart.

THIS IS SO META DUDE!!!
Or maybe I'm finally done being thirteen.

Anyone here?
