Google+, Facebook-, Tumblr0
Where I am on the web these days:
Still posting like dokken to Twitter, but find myself warming to Google+ as well. In many ways it does everything that LiveJournal was doing a decade ago, but with a far friendlier UI. Most everyone I know seems to be piling on in, too. It seems the best candidate for carrying LJ's torch forward.
Here's me on Google+. Feel free to encircle me as you will.
I have all but abandoned my Facebook account, and am likely to delete it later this year. I actively dislike Facebook for a number of reasons, privacy perhaps the least of them -- I find their attitude towards both their users and the rest of the internet cynical, exploitative and exasperating. Even if we don't wish to hang a halo on Google, their own new social network has already demonstrated their willingness and ability to be far better than Facebook in all these ways. I believe they want to deliver a service that's attractive and good for both Google and their users, and not just themselves.
I discovered last month that I created a tumblr four years ago and forgot about it. I started warming to it again, going so far as to make a long, experimental post to it. But with Google+ on the scene, I'll probably let it lie fallow again.
