Possible over simplification, but powerfully relevant statement right there. SA bought LiveJournal and the site somehow managed to get worse. There's no need to implement an ad infrastructure to the site yet that's exactly what happened.
- ajkirwin 18y agoI used to use LiveJournal, as did a number of people that I know and whilst it was never perfect, we all agree that it experienced a significant decline once it was bought by SixApart.
- jacobbijani 18y agoI would guess the reason as being Brad's phaseout (as a result of SA acquisition) more than a straight conspiracy theory. It was pretty odd that they launched Vox shortly after buying LJ, which was basically the same thing.
- iamdave 18y agoYea but LJ just felt more nostalgic, and just as the article said the community feel of the site was just great.
