Most of my folks moved over to Dreamwidth, especially after LJ was sold to Russia. I mean, if you read Russian, apparently LJ is the hugest blogging platform for Russian bloggers! I cross-post a lot from Dreamwidth to LJ and there are people here I check my f-list for. You're one of them!
And I prefer using DW/LJ for some kinds of news that I would post on Facebook but not really indepth.
I think most of my F-list (like Nolan, Zippy, etc) just moved on to Facebook or gave up on blogging.
I've always preferred using LJ for personal stuff due to the anonymity. It's kinda nice to be able to speak one's mind without attaching my real name to it if that makes sense? Tho nowadays, I don't even use it for that anymore 'cause there is almost no one around who reads this and can offer advice :(
I haven't seen Nolan in FOREVER, but I've seen Zippy on Tumblr! I've also found a bunch of other Shinranites on Tumblr, oddly, or rather, they found me... Red_Apocalypse, Quistis_VII, Ash (who always changed his name, you know, that Ash)... I've also encountered Odette and Kari on Twitter, and ChibiDevil and I had a mutual Twitter friend, so we've hung out a few times, and we chat on Google Hangouts.
I've also seen Deovi and sketch on Twitter, too. (Ran into an editor from Mexico who popularized manga there who actually knew Deovi... Deovi was essentially her first fan and the first major Mexican mangaka after her, basically.)
I know a bunch of people on Dreamwidth have been hosting friending memes for folks who like the anonymity but also like community. Some people are experimenting with Imzy, too.
On Facebook, I'm friends with Elise/blkpuddle, Zippy, Kari, Nolan, Summer (I forgot her SO username) and Onxyweapon (the only other Belgian on SO and in a 'OMG it's a small world after all' kind of way, we actually attended the same college and worked at the same company at some point in our lives).
I know that Nolan and Alan actually have their own Youtube channel called Mighty Mayhem.
What is Zippy's Tumblr? I'm also on Tumblr but I mainly use it for random fandom reblogging.
