Nostalgic grumbling

[sally_maria]

I still miss the old days on LJ. :-(

I'm very grateful to all of you who keep posting here, and making my friends page worth reading - I'm afraid I've got too discouraged by a combination of not having much of interest to post about, and the fast food interaction of immediately discussing it on Facebook. It's fun at the time, but you can't go back to it later - it's a poor substitute, but when that's where the people you are closest to are posting, what can you do? And Tumblr, which is where most of the fandom part of my old LJ experience has moved to, is even worse for actually having conversations.

I always use LJ for chatting and sharing. I have accounts on Facebook and Tumblr but mostly use Facebook for games and find Tumblr had to figure out.

I think Tumblr is one of those things that can work really well for you, if you want to share pictures and short text pieces, and get lots of "likes" on them. But I like reading conversation, and Tumblr makes that really difficult.
