Based on my previous post about our meetup, I decided to see if I could find some of those LiveJournal folks on Google. I found not only some LJ users, but a couple other sites as well.
- Mountaintop.be: According to this page, the site is based in Bend. I’ll see if I can get ahold of the guy, as he’s the only non-LJ site I came across.
Then I came across a pile of LJ sites after clicking on the “Friends” info on a few of them:
- RAMBLETRON 4.75.269: A LJ site that’s updated every couple/few days. I haven’t read through it, but the entire latest entry is “Happy Mothers Day, Motherfuckers.” so take that as you will.
- Da Tea Party: Man, that’s an ugly site. Even for LJ.
- Tell me your name, tell me your story, ’cause i’m into it… Uh, OK…
- there is a boy who never goes out
- God-shaped Hole
- this is the blood we’re made of’s journal
- cause and effect
- The View From The Corner
- I introduce myself as nervous
- flowers and razorwire
- kerosene kills (which apparently has been “haxored”)
- Kaylin’s
- my_alter_idem
- JEANA….THE LOOOOOVE MAiD……>
- kp’s Journal
- BEND OREGON
- Oregon Local Bands
Most of the LJ sites are just mindless ranting and talks about sex and drinking and the like, but I’m sure there’s some useful content on some of them. I’ll be checking them periodically, but it might be a bit before I add them to the Bend blogs list.
Dane, you have plenty of targets, it would appear.
If any of you local LiveJournal guys has any comments, feel free to do so here.
Comments
My favorite, from Jenna the LOOOOOOVE Maid:
But I wanna go out and play! Mum’s making me sit in and work on these graduation announcements. Ahh. I don’t even know what quote I want to put in it. It has to be about or involve trees. Because trees are cool, and people suck. No. Because there is a picture of a tree stamped on the front.
Not exactly Dickens, is it?
I think I need a hug…..
Excellent. I click my cloven hooves in glee.
OK, Dane, you’re starting to worry me…
And yes, Logjam, the writing and commentary on those sites is bad. Very bad.
eeewwww livejournal…. Geez, I just saw xanga.com oh man. Any moron can have a blog these days. Not that any of you guys are morons. 🙂
