First, it's free if you know someone who has an account, though I paid since it's cheap and I dig the entire Internet/community thing.Anyway, it all comes down to control. I have a fair amount of control over the journal, it's free/extremely cheap, and the format helps push topics along. Once a new topic goes up, the old one is always pushed down towards the bottom of the pile. Best of all, it's very, very easy for me to update the site while I'm offline. Still, I may end up opening a forum or something similar at some future point in timy, but for now I consider this to lean more towards a publishing venue than a discussion space.Anyway, I may end up moving the site elsewhere if it proves popular, but I suspect that LJ should fill my needs for now.</blockquote>
