mercuryeric	10:48a	Two minute warning... After Lord-knows-how-many years and posts, I'm preparing to sweep up, turn off the lights and lock the doors on this 'blog. Most likely, I'll shut it all down in January (after I archive the posts here for potential revisiting elsewhere).  Add to that, over the last few years, I've been more than a little disappointed in how the management of LJ has blundered in its dealings with users, and the place feels, well, a bit stagnant. I don't use it to broaden a social circle anymore (in fact, I find I'm culling the "social network" I've developed here, for a variety of reasons), and that's telling. I'm planning to add a dedicated (though likely sporadic) blogging space to my website, so feel free to visit me there; I'm also still on Twitter. MySpace, Vox, and ComicSpace are for the chop, though; I have no concrete reason why, but my instinct this year is to retract some of those online feelers into a consolidated web space. I've "met" dozens of folks I am truly fond of via LiveJournal, and I'm a bit wistful about seeing it go, but I've no time to devote here, so it's just been a catch-all shill spot for the better part of a year and a half. Frankly, that bugs me.  Hoping your holidays were pleasant and filled with love and happiness, and that the coming year is a bright one.  Best, -E   Current Mood: thoughtful Current Music: "Every Day I Write The Book" / Elvis Costello (10 Comments |Comment on this)
