My life-partner, elo_sf, got an account because some of our good friends on the east coast, like our dear friend, sidewinder, and we wanted to stay in touch. A number of our local friends are also on LJ.
Of course, I've developed many wonderful friendships with people, some of whom I've met, some I have yet to meet.
I've often thought it would be cool to have a Live Journal Convention, (maybe in Las Vegas.) It would give us a chance to meet in person and talk about our online community.
I've heard of LJ meetup parties and I think it would rock if there were an official one. Sadly, with LJ management spread over two continents and totally unorganized at that I doubt it will eer happen.
One of my best friends set me up batagur is still alive and well...she is not on my friends list though because all she does with her Lj now is write slash which I'm not into and she's on FB and actually I kind of see her all the time so....uhm....
