New Swine is out today if you'd like to read it www.swinemagazine.co.uk My article is called KW Senior.
I saw a new thing on the front of livejournal saying 'Newly Available Usernames' so I had a quick look. I find it a shame that people give up on blogging, actually maybe they haven't, maybe they just defected to blogger or something, but the fact that the old usernames are now flouting, unloved on the 'for sale or rent pages' makes me feel a little bit sad.
Some of the names have clearly been thought out, they're not just Dave20374pl. Take for example "errorindeath" or "raggedmemory". It half makes me want to adopt those blogs just so that the great names don't go missing. "Kabukicockroach" is a great name, as is "screweveryone" which is criminally unused.
I like the random journal button too so I thought I'd click three randomers to get a snapshot of life today

Has a warning about mature content but I plough on to a nice layout with some anime icons. All the posts have further warnings but I'm the brave sort and I click only to find that it's mostly stuff about fanfic. I can't work out what she is fanficcing but it's probably anime related.

It's another Russian one! I can't understand this either but it's got a poll on it with some indeterminable option. I voted for 'manafa'.
