Livejournal or Myspace? Which is more addicting and fun? I honestly Prefer My space because of the more customizations and the blogs you can write can be somewhat of a live journal. Meeting people is also easier on Myspace. I find i have a more enjoyable time with myspace over livejournal.

 

This is just my opinion though. go see for your self.

 

Myspace

Live Journal

 

and anyone else with myspace add me .

yeah.. i'm not into xanga and livejournal and all those sites.. i'm too private, plus no one really cares about my life. lol. but myspace is interesting, you can find people everywhere, network, and they do have blogs too, so there's a lot of things you can do with it, it's not just for the sole purpose of journals. i'm addicted to it :lol:

I don't really know which one, since I'm not using Myspace to write a journal. I kind of a private person. I use Myspace to get connected with my friends. Well, if you like to publised your life, you could use the journal in Myspace, but I prefer Diary-X, since I can make a certain entry to be private. So I can put my private thought there without people reading it.

Which one to use I think depends mainly on what your friends use. It is easy to link to other journals/blogs on the same service, but harder between services. You could also select based on features. One feature to look at is whether there are client programs for posting to the service, that may be easier than the web interface. I know Livejournal has such programs.

I personally, I prefer myspace because of the whole music aspect. It's great for finding local bands, and it makes you feel a little "closer" (for lack of a better word) to your favorite bands since 90% have myspace accounts. My little brother's band setup a myspace account and a week and a half later one of their songs got played on the radio because of all the exposure they got. So all in all, I pick myspace. Oh, and anohter very important aspect... It's a hell of a lot easier to get a myspccount than a livejournal. I remember begging people for 3 months to get a damn LJ code, and ended up never getting one :lol:

Sunblind, by the way, livejournal does not go by ljcodes anymore, it is an "apply" and get an account thing now. They did away with the whole lj-code thing a few years back... Just for your information.

I honestly prefer livejournal. Alot less people read it, and there's better restriction on who can read who's journal.MySpace defeats the purpose of having a journal. Because having a journal is supposed to help you vent and get your thoughts down. But if everybody's reading it, then it kind of eliminates the purpose of having personal thoughts, cuz everybody just knows what you're thinking now :lol:.Although I do give myspace props. They've brought the online community closer together. And MySpace is also a personal website. So now everybody can say they own a part of the internet :lol:.I for one will be sticking to Lj though. Psh to conformity.On a side note: *Is adding a poll*

Holy crap, now I feel old. Well, I haven't tried to get a LJ since I was in 9th grade, and that was 5 years ago. So I guess that makes sense Lol Good for them, I've seen people post death threats over LJ codes before, a very ugly sight.

MySpace of course, but here's some reasons why I went with MySpace over Live Journal.1)Lots of help and lots of people to talk to about basically anything.2)All my friends use MySpace, and they find it a good way to talk to their friends without having to pay anything but the electric bill.3)The coding is easy and since everyone helps you when you need it, you won't be lost once you get used to the site. 4)This is only me, but I love seeing the little red envelope telling us someone left you a message. It feels nice seeing it.

I would have to say myspace is more addicting mainly because I use livejournal for posting for my mature site, so it's something I do to keep my members updated, while with myspace, I'm always checking either the groups I'm in for concise commentary to posts, or I'm replying to people who wrote me. (Or, in the cases of idiots who either can't spell or can't read that I'm already dating someone, a non-reply.) And then, there's always the opportunity to meet people via myspace, which I think is the main reason why I'm more addicted to myspace- there's a possibility of really meeting a good friend, while, with livejournal, all it is is people commenting on what you've written/ranted on.

I honestly dont like either one. I have my own little site that I use as a journal and I put up a whole bunch of other random things. I use the journal part for myself, I don't really care if other people read it, all the names are changed to stupid stuff like "spot" and "fluffy." LoL! A lot of my friends are on livejournal and they love it. I have a couple friends on myspace, and they like it too. I like my own website because I can do whatever I want. My journal can look like whatever it wants to look like and I don't have to follow any templates or restrictions. I like being unique, and I like the way my website is set up. But that just might be me.
