Things that make you go hmm

Does anyone else find the concept of foursquare a little creepy? Hey kids, look! It's another way for us to track your every movement!

Edited to note that the irony of posting from my phone, using an app that notifies everyone that I have done so, is not lost on me...

I do like the Facebook app for iPhone. I barely used FB before I got my phone; now I check in pretty regularly, although I still don't post there much. I much prefer LJ-style online interaction.

Yeah, I pretty much reserve FB for my real life friends, since most of them don't know I write fanfic or have no interest in reading it. But I love the people I meet here, I'm closer to some of my LJ friends than I am to my RL friends.

That's pretty much my divide too: FB is RL friends and acquaintances, LJ is fandom and a selection of closer RL friends. It's funny; in a way, even though FB is how I present myself to the people who "know" me, I feel much more like "myself" on LJ.

Ditto. I'm not sure why, maybe it's because were all here for (roughly) the same reason. It makes it easier to talk to people.
