My First Entry
Long... Long ago Live Journal was a big part of my social engagement online. I can even remember posting on LJ about how I made a MySpace page, it's been that long. Over the years I used it less and less, and every time I returned in an attempt to rekindle my presence on the platform, it seemed the page drifted more and more from what I remembered it being. This wasn't just nostalgia clouding my mind, it was the altering of features, removal of others, and a long, slow transformation that seemed to have made the LJ of today a totally separate entity than it once was. On top of that many of the people and communities I used to know were gone or long-inactive. As I sadly moped through the ruins of LJ, poking at it to see if it was even worth my time anymore, I saw an entry from someone mentioning this site, which I had not heard of before. After reading up on it a bit it seemed that it could possibly be what I was looking for, and after signing up and fleshing out my profile a bit, I can say this is really starting to feel like 2004 all over again, in a good way. A bit quiet here though, but maybe I'm just not looking in the right places.
Well, here it is, my first entry. Hopefully more will follow after I browse through what this site has to offer and what communities are active. I miss the genuine engagement between people that LJ used to offer, and I hope I may rediscover it here.

We don't have your Antiquity Echoes: a Photographed Tour of Abandoned America at my specific library, but we do have it in the library system of which my library is a member.
(I did some urbex when I lived in Peoria, Illinois while I was at college in the mid-to-late 1970s...wish I'd thought to take photos back then.)
