What?

One of my friends- a person I thought extremely sympathique- has been caught stealing other people's photographs and posting them as their own. Within the past couple of hours their journal has been deleted.

Many of the filched pictures came from this site http://www.trekearth.com/gallery/Europe/France/photo100850.htm

I am shocked and disappointed.

Why would anyone do such a thing?

I didn't wake up to the possibilities until the late 90s and still have some of the zeal (and innocence) of the recent convert.

Good question.

Writing is what I do. That hasn't changed since I was in my teens. And right now LJ seems like the place to be doing it.

I feel like I'm taking part in a fascinating experiment. I mean the blog is a new form. We're the first generation to be working with it. I can't see myself getting bored with it any time soon.
