Question of the Day

[ayoub]

If you had the money, would you buy Livejournal inc? If you did, what would you do with it?

Hell yeah! And I'd push for a little more smoothness in how the system operates rather than add shiny new features.

You seem to be implying that LJ is incapable of bettering someone's life in a meaningful way. I have to respectfully disagree.

I didn't say that. You took what I said out of context. I never said that LJ couldn't be a meaningful and enriching place. I personally don't feel like I could spend that kind of money on LJ when there are people in the world who desperately need that kind of money. It is my opinion (you can disagree) that people who are suffering (disease, famine, poverty, etc) would get the money if I had that sort of cash.

Then suppose for the sake of argument that we had cured all disease, ended famine and were working on a world-wide economic model that kept every human on Earth at a level of comfort they themselves were comfortable with. What would you do then with LJ, relative to Ayoub's question?

Good catch on my taking things out of context, by the way. Thanks! =)

It would still be a no and only because it would be too much trouble. I don't want to be the one responsible if people didn't like how the place was being run. Purchasing a social networking/blog is just too much drama for me haha.
