Several at the 3FMB have LiveJournals, and I figured probably even more at SDMB have them. So? Got one? Let us know!

Here’s mine:  
[http://www.livejournal.com/users/opalcat](http://www.livejournal.com/users/opalcat)  
and my dream journal one:  
[http://www.livejournal.com/users/opaldreams](http://www.livejournal.com/users/opaldreams)

If you are interested in starting a LiveJournal, just go to [http://www.livejournal.com](http://www.livejournal.com) and click “Create Journal” to set up your account (free). Then to go “Download” to download the client (much handier than updating your journal via a web browser)

Not my kinda thing, really.

But I would like to ask **SPOOFE Bo Diddley** , **Homer** , and _especially_ **oldscratch** to refrain from posting the links to their journals, should they choose to start one 😉

(I think it was oldscratch with that labrador he fel… oh, dammit, I can’t bring myself to do it. Ya know, the TMI Thread?)

Whoa, I just saw a webcam pic on, ahem, someone’s page!

::d&r::

Heh, that diary stuff looks pretty cool - if I had the time I’d prolly do it too, but then again, the SDMB is enough of a diary for me. 😉

Why, oh why, _oh why_ did I click on the “click if you want to see the uncensored version”?

I started a live journal a week ago, but it’s rather incoherent and depressing so I won’t post a link to it. It’s pretty theraputic though.

I don’t know, why DID you? I’ll have you know, btw, that is one of only 3 pictures of my breast to be found on the internet, and the first ever to be openly linked to by me. I do like how the little smiley has a nose though 🙂

BTW, that was for the sake of getting that one still picture, and was done when my cam wasn’t uploading. I have never shown my breasts on my cam.

Frankly, morbid curiosity. It gets me every time…

Well, as briefly discussed with Opal earlier, my company proxy server will not allow me to view the cams on her site.

BUT I do have my own live journal:

Well, i started one, for the heck of it, although I am sure it will be quite dull. I think I could get into it a bit, I’ve been having trouble getting into the groove of the SDMB lately, so I suppose this can be my own little posting haven, even if I’m the only one that reads it.

I started one too a couple of days ago. But I’m warning you, it is mostly the rantings of a severely sleep-deprived woman.

I started one too but I have to update it on the Web. I tried to download the client software but it’s not working for me. It won’t let me log in so I guess I can’t use it here at work. I may try and download it at home. I haven’t kept a journal for years. This might be a good outlet for me.
