Dear "followers", if by that we agree to mean people friended to me on Livejournal,

I don't know what I should write you. LJ is anemic. I don't know why I expect it to somehow reverse its course, in the wake of Facebook. But I still wish it would.

I don't really get Tumblr. Is it sort of like a cross between LJ and Pinterest? I imagine it as being largely images, with some subtitles. But I could be wrong.

I do SORT OF get Twitter, at least I get how it could be useful in some immediate text-y circumstances, and also I see how crafting gemlike 140 character messages could be an art of sorts. Not that I claim to be able to do that. However, I DID get two (completely banal) tweets published in the Guardian again, because the guy who liveblogs NFL games and I now have some sort of special relationship, where he pretty much incorporates any tweet I send him during a game. Thank you, Paolo Bandini. Today's Packers-49ers game was DREADFUL, though. God. Painful. And I watched it with J., who is a maniacal 49ers fan, too.

But more than Twitter and Pinterest (which I can't manage to use either, visual though I consider myself) and Tumblr, I still prefer Livejournal, and the long form blogging it privileges. Sigh.
