This is an inside look at a meeting between the creators of LJ:
"Alright lets create something that will provide endless hours of entertainment to kids with ADD. Yes, something that will be a million times more interesting than researching Heart of Darkness. It'll be genius!"
"I love it, kids will be able to post random and ENTERTAINING facts about their lives so that other kids can read it"
"thats good but not its not quite enough, lets give them the option of making it really colorful with moving icons and moving text. That way every LJ is different and will give them a million different things to look at"
"alright this has potential. How about letting people comment to their posts. that way readers can waste even more time writting out their thoughts to people's posts"
"there is still something missing. OK I GOT IT!!!! we will let them post pictures of themselves doing things with their friends. YES! massive picture posts that will take forever to load!"
"Its genius, procastination and ADD will be forever changed"
Thank you LJ creators, you truely are jerks!
