I see. Yeah. I dunno.

I seem to replace, well almost, websites.

I've 'replaced' Gaia with Menewsha and MySpace for LiveJournal/Facebook.
Facebook being one of the least used sites of mine.

My main addictions seem to be here and LJ.

Anyone else here on LJ?

I'm on it, but I hardly use it anymore.

I used to use it a lot, but that was when my friend's community (well, she doesn't own it but she's a mod, and we weren't friends yet at the time, lol) was a lot more active...

I finally joined Facebook after my sister's prodding. I never was motivated to join MySpace - it just seemed so messy. I'm not on LJ.

Ahh, I see.

Me and a friend co-own 1 comm. and I think I've got editing access on the other one. Nothing too special. One for a doujinshi she was drawing (that's never getting finished because she no longer likes the storyline cuz it was angsty) and another for the selling of cute handmade phone charms and crap. xD

I basically use it for reading about/looking for photos&videos LM.C (my most fave band, evar) and buying/selling stuff. Which, I've made a good dollar on some things, which is always nice.

Buying and selling... you mean like art?

But I see ^^. Yeah, I guess I haven't got the creative focus to do that sort of stuff, haha.

As for MySpace... well, I have an account but I try to avoid using it, for political reasons. Facebook... I've been using more frequently, mainly just for keeping contact with people I otherwise would have lost contact with...

By buying and selling I mean stuff. Like, items. Mostly items involving Japanese rock bands, a lot of people sell that kinda stuff on LJ. That and anime/manga things too.

I sold my entire collection of Fruits Basket on there. xD

I can't draw well enough for anyone to want to buy my art ^^;

And talking about art and stuff, I would like to try and open a shop making something, I'm just not sure what yet. Hmm.

Yep!

The community garagesalejapan is excellent to see what everyone has for sale if your fandom falls within Japan. xD

I also check jrock_market, not as active as the other (and has a lot of the same advertisement posts, but its good too. xD

That's cool. I don't really have any interests that come from Japan, though.

Mine mainly come from California and England.

Well, I bet there are things for that on there, too!

I just don't venture too far outside a few of my friends personal LJs and a limited number of communities.

On the topic of "where are you on the internet," Dae is on:
Xanga (not really much anymore), Livejournal (though all I do is check to some webcomic updates and see my friend whining about her life :roll: ), Facebook, Myspace (mostly for music listening purposes)
Menewsha, Gaia, Zantarni, Roliana (though haven't been on since Easter event), Kinsaki (Haven't been on since I made account)
Dae pretty much bounces from one thing to another.

IRK3N: I look at the giving back auction every once in a while... I just don't really see anything worth putting in a bid...

If we're talking about all sites in general... man, I'm on WAY too many sites to even TRY to name. I'll find a kind of site that I like, and then I'll join all of that kind that I can find XD. Like avatar sites and pet sites...

I quit Roli because Roli is hella lame.

XDD

I'm sorry, but the people there, most of them anyway are FUCKED UP.

(no offense to any of y'all who might go there.)

The looks of Roliana didn't appeal to me so I didn't sign up for it.

I'm on Roli :heart: . I don't find it to be any worse than any other sites: I get VERY annoyed with people on all of the sites, and can find rudeness everywhere... often when people say one site is rude or unpleasant or whatever I will think that the site they prefer is comparable or worse XD. So in other words it's moot to me, because I'm still on all of the sites. *whistles*

I've never heard of this "Roli" you all speak of.

LOL Xanga! I used to have one of those back in the day. From like 2004 to about .... 2006 mebbe? Then I deleted it cuz there really was no use for it anymore. xD

Oh, and I also play Flyff (an MMORPG). Well, I haven't in a looooooooooong time. But I used to, anyways. I was considering going back because they're releasing version 12 soon, but eh. I dunno yet.

Awwh.

LOL, about macs. So I learned to use one because in the school computer labs a lot of people don't know how to use them/refuse to, so there's always at least a few of them open. And it was fairly easy to learn to use (even though I still can't figure out screen caps xD) and when a few people I know found out I was thinking about a mac as a new laptop for like, one second, they were all like, "OMG NO! APPLE IS EVVVIIILLL." But they're also the people who bash it and never tried it.

Even though I'm not too much considering the mac anymore (I fell in love with Dell Studio xD) I'm still definitely getting an iPod touch as my next iPod (since the one I have now is broke). They're soooo sexy. omg. xD

I dunno why Apple is evil, really.

I'm guessing its the prejudice people have, from being on PC all their lives. *shrug*

Though, they do seem to becoming a status symbol of some sort. Like, "hey, look at me, I can spend more money on a computer than you can." I don't think this of all people that I see with macs (which actually has been a lot more than I expected), but I think its a general bias. Yeah.

I personally think both Windows and Mac work fine.

Hell, next OS I want to try out on campus is a Linux! I shall be master of the OS. XDDDDD;

XD I've been using Macs all my life and I've never seen it in the remotest way to be a status symbol o_o. I just like them a lot better. But what really makes me cling to them is the fact that so much still seems to cater to IE users and Windows systems... well it's my nature to push against forced things...
