Something I’ve realized lately is that I’m not a big fan of “social networks” or “online communities”, al la LiveJournal and MySpace. It’s not that there is anything wrong with them, it’s just that I have enough friend’s as it is that I don’t do a good job at keeping in touch with. Also, sometimes these groups have a tendency to turn in to popularity contests. I have no problem with these communities as a rule, and fully support them. I just think I have different priorities and need to work on improving the friendships I currently have, not make new ones.
