Two years and Counting…
Yep, its been 2 years since I’ve started started to blog on LJ. ( ack
One year ago LJ was a very small, close, tight community but now its a kumbh mela. ( I wish LJ had not become totally open ).

Congrats on the anniversary ! I didn’t realize you joined LJ after I did – always thought you were one of the early adopters.
I wish LJ had not become totally open
I don’t. Funny how quite a few of what I call the hacker/geek crowd on LJ feel this way. Hmm.
Looks like I registered way earlier than you. I have a 5-digit userid (first account). Strange, but it didn’t seem like two years for me. Time flies so so so fast.
I wish LJ had not become totally open
I too think so, but if it hadn’t been for that I probably would never have an LJ account 🙂
I am not saying it was a totally bad idea. I know i am being a bit selfish when I said that, but for me LJ has changed a *lot* over the last couple of months.
If there is a geek-only LJ, that would be great!
heh…things change..and we just move on..
I wish LJ had not become totally open
Yeah…sometimes I feel it should have been the good ole invite code LJ…at other times this one is nicer lol
I only started in August 2003 and my friends page has grown to 110. I’ve created groups like **hackers**, **oracle**, etc., for convenience. I think I’m going to stop looking at my friends page and read the RSS feeds instead.
yep. the fact is its too much to handle. I read a post, and when I hit reload an hour later, its gone into next page and I always miss out on the comments coz of that
There’s no way to be notified of new comments on someone else’s post. There’s no way to “watch” a post–one of my pet peeves with LJ. Even if you subscribe to the RSS feed, it doesn’t get updated with the addition of new comments on a post–unlike Movable Type. So you have to bookmark the link and keep going back to check manually.
Trim your friends list and voila! Small, close, tight community again 🙂
I prob should. never got around to doing it.
