skyringI unfriended tiggysbabes today. I don't feel real good about this, because I try to friend anybody who friends me, but I cannot honestly say that I am interested in page after page of the doings of small folk. I appreciate the love and effort that goes into the journal, but it's not quite my cup of tea.
Which leads me to wonder what journals I really like. Mutual interests, of course, such as Bookcrossing. Or writing. or travel.
Witty journals. Journals that make me smile or think.
Emotional journals. Journals that make me feel for the writer, share their triumphs and tragedies.
Journals of people I know.
I can put up with a certain amount of things that bore the socks off me, such as knitting or fast cars or horses, but there's got to be something to keep me interested.
I probably should look at my Bookcrossing friends list as well. Bookcrossing doesn't seem to do much with this information. In LJ it's crucial, because I get a great deal of pleasure from reading the journals of my friends, but in BX, it doesn't really matter if someone's a friend or not. It's really just a link to bookshelves, and I tend to go to my own and edit the URL, changing Skyring to Friendsname, if I want to look at their bookshelf.

Date: 2005-05-17 03:33 pm (UTC)There are some people who I tend to gloss over...and others I tend to zero in on.
Now, at least I don't feel so guilty, and don't feel bad if someone chooses to unfriend me. (But if you knock me off your list, you're dead meat!)
I like the use of the BC friends list for people you have met in person....but I haven't had the good fortune of you world travelers to meet so many folks!
But it's an idea to keep in mind.....
