Pre-blogging bloggers! Mine was public until I saw LiveJournal mentioned on MTV & then I locked it up!

It also had some of the wildest drama that would end up on a site entirely dedicated to LJ drama. those were the days!

I remember deciding whether I wanted to be a LiveJournal person or a Xanga Journal person. Regardless, I knew it was important that everyone knew everything that was going on in my head.

I certainly hope that site has been nuked. It could definitely ruin careers.

I left LJ after the Russian owners were forced to modify their TOS to comply with Russian law regarding censorship and poster identification.
