Now that I'm here...

I've noticed the pattern, or rather the absence of pattern that led me originally to Live Journal.

Most of the people I started following on LJ migrated there when alt.devilbunnies newsgroup became so choked with spam that it was practically unuseable. Also, the devilbunnies community was shrinking as people moved on to other things.

From that community I branched out a bit - adding a few friends here and there over the years. Many of the people I met through other people or were lead to their posts by others in my community.

Now that I'm on Dreamwidth I've arrived without most of the old community. Perhaps it's time to strike out in a new direction with this journal.

At the moment, I'm too tired to do much exploring. I had a rough day at work with some critical equipment needing a reboot at an inconvienent time. I swear, if I hear anyone say that my position is superfluous because the "automation can do everything" I'm going to give that person a serious piece of trouble. Even though I was there and got everything fixed we still lost several records.

Computers - don't trust 'em. And in modern broadcasting *everything* has a computer in it. You got to watch the equipment like a hawk.

It's true, most of us devilbunnies are crazy.

Well, okay. I know, I know. "Speak for yourself" or somesuch. ;)

It helped me to branch out, personally, though I haven't had Figgy'snew symps migrating here like I have newsgroupers and people I have met thanks to newsgroupers.

I'm with you on the computers thing..considering I'm current babysitting a web install of linux because my xp machine threw a fit.

No wonder geeks rule... we make the machines that run the world work.
