The Group Mind

[poliphilo]

I have over 200 LJ friends but only a small fraction ever do anything. I had a wee clear out yesterday, but only of people who had defriended me or never friended me back. One of them friended me by return and I reinstated him/her- so that was a good outcome.

I notice this morning that other people have been doing the same thing. The group mind in action, I suppose.

I never built a stable of LJ friends, and I'm not cleaning house. A lot of good friends have wafted off to Google+ or FB, and I'm spending a lot of time on FB myself. But at some point the shininess of microblogging may wear off and we might want to do real posts again.

It would be good if that happened.
