MONKEY ROLL CALL!

I highly encourage you to click on that link and go over to that entry not only if you haven't posted yet, but also if you haven't looked at it in a while.

These are some of the faces of your social network.

Scroll through the comments. Look at the faces and associate them with the usernames you've always seen.

Read who they are, what they do, what they're going to do, where else they live online...

Do this in your Facebook, Flickr, et cetera. Find faces for the names. See the people behind the phosphor dots. Talk to 'em.

I know for a fact that at least a dozen of my readers have met in real life after meeting on my LJ and then arranging to hang out with each other and that's FANTASTIC.

And I've met...over thirty? Forty? of the people from here and Flickr and Orkut, all of them amazing.

I feel like I finally have some plans for my online presence again, from writing to art to...a few new features and some I abandoned.

Help me make it stick this time, after so many months of fail.

And you know what? The future, for all of its bad shit, really kicks ass sometimes.

Go internet.
