LJ v. MySpace

[aidenfire]

I'm writing a paper comparing LJ and MySpace. I'm trying to get a handle on some demographics of each. If you could answer some questions for me, I'd really appreciate it.

ETA: The second question should read "Entirely composed of people I've met online." Whoops! Sorry, guys. :\

heya...might wanna change that first choice to "online"...i got confused *is lame*

re:poetry...Hmmm. i'm mildly uncomfortable, if only for the reason that...i dunno, i've got this irrational plagarism fear. and since it is *secret* and pretty much friends only, i wouldn't really have much legal protection. which is dumb. feel free to use a couple lines, but i would appreciate being identified (username is good!). thanks for asking! i wanna read the paper...

incidentally, there is a ravenish bird with a fairly bright blue head sitting on our bird feeder. how very strange. looks like it dipped its head in something.

Yeah...except you can't edit polls. :\ I added an eta: above it, though. Argh! This is why I shouldn't make posts and then leave my computer.

Yeah, that's totally understandable. I just wanted to make it clear to the reader that I wasn't talking about crappy *coughmyspacecough* poetry when I said a friend of mine keeps a poetry journal. Ok, I'll just use a line or two and credit it to your journal. I wasn't sure if the wish for anonymnity would be greater or the wish for proper credit. But of course it won't be connected to you, just to the journal.

Huh! That's very interesting! I wonder what kind of bird it is, or if it actually did fall in a paint can or something.
