““It sounds a little odd, but my first gay kiss, my first gay bar experience⟳, my first gay friend—all a result⟳ of LiveJournal,” he says with a laugh⟳. “And all with LiveJournalers.””

“Languages thus seemed to be employed also to a symbolic function, i.e. not necessarily in connection to the bloggers’ level of language proficiency: “the frequency of this practice suggests that many LiveJournalers, even those who lack the linguistic or non-verbal means to interact directly with speakers of other languages, are aware that LJ is a cosmopolitan environment, and orient to that fact, albeit superficially” (Herring et al. 2007: n.p.).”

“There isn’t definitive research⟳ on the differences between LiveJournal users and Xanga users, but the perception is that Xanga skews younger and is more popular with Asian teens while LiveJournalers tend⟳ to be more artsy or “emo.””

“LiveJournalers love⟳ quizzes. What kind of hobbit are you? Are you a great lover? What planet are you most like⟳? Which character from some movie are you? What's your emotional type⟳? They fill⟳ them in and their friends fill⟳ them in and everyone compares their results. Harmless fun.”

“Many LiveJournalers choose⟳ not to use⟳ real names when discussing people online, instead electing to assign pseudonyms or just initials.”

“Specifying age groups helped ensure variation of age within the sample. This is important in light⟳ of suggestions that most bloggers are between the ages of 13 and 19 (Bortree, 2005; Henning, 2003) – a trend that is also reflected in the demographic characteristics of LiveJournal users. These criteria were met by using LiveJournal’s advanced search⟳ feature. For example, a search⟳ would be performed for LiveJournalers from Melbourne between the ages of 30–40 who had updated in the last⟳ month (at 4 April 2006, such a search⟳ produces about 270 blogs).”

“Every LiveJournaler had their own⟳ style. Some people wrote exclusively about one topic. Others wrote about all kinds of things.”
