Question of the Day

What makes livejournal so addictive for you?

---

The convenience of being able to keep in touch with so many, so easily... :D

Agreed. I like that I can keep up with what's going on with friends, as well as get info on just about any celebrity I choose - news, photos, etc. I know that's not everyone's thing, but it's enjoyable for me.

Habit is a powerful spell.

[amnotcute.livejournal.com]

About the only way I keep in touch with people.

[angellamongus.livejournal.com]

easy.. a way to keep in touch with friends, or make new friends PLUS a way to try to preserve a tiny bit of sanity by ranting and raving.

Ahh beautiful beautiful LJ.. how I adore thee.

[agirlnamedluna.livejournal.com]

the window on a world of acquantainces and friends (and real friends for that matter)

[texasts.livejournal.com]

Ditto.

It is all about the conversation.

[padiwack.livejournal.com]

The friends I have made, the stories we share. The support we give each other. The whole package really. That's why I plan to journal here as long as I can.

[beatzz.livejournal.com]

It feels like home, with all the awesome people. :3

[libra-dragon.livejournal.com]

Meeting new folks I would haven't have the chance to met IRL and all tht goes along with it.

[editgrrl.livejournal.com]

It makes me feel connected to the world and socially connected to people.

[naimhe35.livejournal.com]

It gives me the opportunity to meet and connect wtih people I may have not gotten to know otherwise.

[evergladesqueen.livejournal.com]

my friends live here. LOL

[chiropteraclan.livejournal.com]

Conversation...convenience. When I took a year off from LJ, I found that all but 2 of my LJ friends weren't willing to keep in touch by email. That's what brought me back. I missed everyone too much.

[fragbert.livejournal.com]

The connections you make with people.

[1jodie.livejournal.com]

it's the interactions i have with LJ friends

[donnickcottage.livejournal.com]

My crack dealer has a page, just down the alphabet from mine.

[shamrocks-13.livejournal.com]

*Grinz* My pimp is on here too. Funny how that shit just works...

[kathyrene.livejournal.com]

The potential to meet people with similar interests and keeping up with the friends you've made. It also becomes a hobby as well. Often I am inspired by others postings like photos, poems, thoughts, etc

[shamrocks-13.livejournal.com]

I have more interaction here than I do in my life. I have people who love me, talk to me, help me, cry with me, whatever. And I can vent to my heart's content about things that break me down. This is where I regain my strength.

[1-rhiannon-1.livejournal.com]

Agreed. I really prefer LJ to Myspace or Facebook or any of that.

[ktsies2.livejournal.com]

It really isn't addictive for me. I've actually been trying to post stuff lately to get back into it. It's a good venting tool when no one is around to vent to, though.
And my posts probably increase whenever Brad is away. Haha.

[alifeinfocus.livejournal.com]

It has actually become less addictive for me lately. I prefer Facebook now.

[fox-bard.livejournal.com]

The people. ^__^

[prdct.livejournal.com]

i agree with your answer. also the feeling of being to express myself so freely :)

[hippie-geisha.livejournal.com]

It's cheaper than therapy....not that I need any...:)

[smwright.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* Agreed.

[xsongbirdx.livejournal.com]

Because I wuv my friends! (and they are all the friends I've got!)

[popfiend.livejournal.com]

What you said.

I enjoy the process of connection and conversation.

[cerebralpig.livejournal.com]

All the lovely folks... and being nosy. :)

[kelly-pink.livejournal.com]

my friends are here..

[photodiva02.livejournal.com]

I think it's the camaraderie, for the most part. When you go through something, USUALLY people ARE supportive I have had a few non supportiveness, but are they really friends anyway?

[sorah.livejournal.com]

Ditto. (sorry for the late reply, I'm catching up)

I have made some really tight friends via LJ and enjoy the diversity and sharing of thoughts, supports, laughter, and knowledge I gain from each and every one on my friends list!

You included :o)

[patchworld.livejournal.com]

A desire to learn more about lifestyle of various people, to make friends from all over the world. :)

[castlelady.livejournal.com]

The interaction with others, making friends from all around the world, being able to share my life with my friends here and being able to talk about things I would never share with people who know me in real life....and then there is this addiction with icon-making ;)

[nonickname96.livejournal.com]

Sometimes I don't even know... lol. Maybe it's my penchant to have connection with human beings at (almost) all times.... maybe it's that i enjoy the attention and GIVING attention to others. Maybe it's just the connection I feel with people through it.

I really don't know. But when i go a day or two without ANY lj i do feel the absence.
