Fascinating.
Nov. 8th, 2003 02:58 amNo real post here today, as I'm having The Day From Hell, but here's a link for you:
cofax's reaction to my thoughts on fandom, and other LJ fen's reactions to hers:

And, just to compare, the board-based fandom's reply to my thoughts again:

The fascinating thing of course being how totally differently these two communities react.
BTW, thanks, cofax, for linking to me - I think this actually made that post of mine the most viewed and most-commented-on post ever in this humble LJ of mine... While I'm not usually trying to get people to read this LJ - most of it is too boring for public consumption, except for a few RL friends - I am glad that that post got some reactions, because, frankly, the reactions so far have been fascinating.
Hmmm. Being read - weird feeling! I suddenly feel so... public. I'll have to watch what I'm saying in the future (if any of these visitors stay around), and stop posting boring things about hating lettuce. ;-)
