Ok, i need to vent. Cuz i'm sick and tired of everyone being a wannabe and at least agreeing with the idea.
First topic. Subprofile. Granted, I may not have been the first one to get one of these, I am DAMN SURE i was the first one in my area to. I remember the first time I ever saw it too. My friend Jeff gave me his friend's SN, he told me to look at his profile. I looked, and I was amazed because he had a link that opened up within his profile window. woohhhh, kooooool. So I eventually found out it was called subprofile and I opened my own account. Then two months later, everyone I know suddenly had a subprofile. I stopped using it. Also, i figured out how the coding worked, and could link my own webpages into the profile window without the help of some stupid program who's job it was to advertise itself.
Next topic: Web Journals/blogs/Xanga(which i still have no idea what the fuck it means or stands for). Alright, no need to talk shit, I'll just state it plain and simple: To everyone that reads my shit and doesn't believe that I was the first one to start a web journal... why don't we just fuckin click through the archives and see who has the earliest first post date? I'm pretty sure mine will be the oldest.
I remember when I first started blogging too. I actually had to go and look to find blog, which I can't say for the majority of the people who use it today. (Oooh, wow, so and so's page is so pretty, I'm going to make one too!) I just wanted a webpage where I could post journal entries. Doing the HTML and redoing it every day sucked. I wanted a program where I could just type, and it would post everything in an orderly fashion for me. I first I found this diarypage, but it wasn't as customizable as I wanted it to be. Then either my twin or one of her friends (I think Xinlei) had a web journal, except, back then, it was all tied into a person's webpage so you couldn't really tell it was a seperate program that was used to post the entries. They kept referring to it as a "Weblog" so I was curious and typed it into a search engine. Well, I clicked the first link that came up and it just happened to be Blogger.com. I've been happy with it ever since.
So there, don't mean to hate on anything for those of you who know have gotten into the personal web journal thing. But shit, where does the line end? Is it going to get to the point where people don't talk to each other anymore because all they do is read each other's web journals? For real, that's why I don't post about my day. (BECAUSE THAT'S FUCKING STUPID. NOBODY WANTS TO READ ABOUT YOUR BORING LIFE.) So instead, i just just write interesting tidbits down. If a person wants to know more, they can contact me and talk to me. I use my blog as a tool to socialize, not as a tool to help me not talk to anyone anymore.
But all I gotta say to all you mother fuckers who have web journals and subprofiles:
I'm a mother fuckin trendsetter. (At least amongst my less tech savvy friends.)
