I post more of my personal life here, just because it's a ghost town now.

I read all the posts of the people who are on my Friends List...but fewer and fewer people seem to be communicating at all.

The older ones, the ones who are inclined to post more about important topics, seem to be more...reserved and introspective, or find that what they would wish to write about, isn't all that important to write about, after all. The ones who are artists seem to post - when they DO post - to FurAffinity, and then only when they are in desperate straits, or are soliciting commissions, or have an art submission to post.

Twitter CAN be a great way to send out pointed bits of information - but what it SEEMS to be, in the aggragate, is short bits of trivia or momentary feelings and impressions, of the most ephemeral sort. I will acknowledge its potential to "get the word out" about something, but not really practical for _interaction_ in-depth. Does anyone recollect a meaningful or insightful conversation being carried out over twitter?

The general mood of the times seems to be walling us off - cocooning us - from one another.

I suspect that if someone could measure the statistics of e-mail content, that even that would show a reduction in "meaningful" communications of an interpersonal sort, in a massive way.

Too much world information - and it is having the same effect as "noise". We tune out.

It probably goes without saying, but I'm pretty regular on here still.. :>

I post only about once a year and Facebook decided to ban me over nothing as far as I can tell and there seems to be no way to appeal.

I went to facebook for my daily posts... I come back here once or twice a month for a couple days in a row, then disappear again.

I'm still around. Haven't found anything better than LJ.

Still here. I prefer reading to posting though as, frankly I haven't doen anything noteworthy, or positive in more than a year. Nothing to report so I sit back and read.

Still here. Still reading. Don't have anything to say most of the time.

I come back here occasionally. Then I feel guilty about not posting here more.

Ha ha! Of course we're not.
