So long, venture capital

So, um, Fanlib is shutting down.

*wind through the trees*

That's it. I got nothing.

Except that I has a Twitter.

I twitter friended you! I'm bewize on twitter!

All I got is LOL!

I'm going to checkout twitter later...I'm getting booted off the computer by my 7 and 4 year old sons. I guess PBS SPROUT on the computer is more important.

twitter for the win! I wanted a place I could put posts that are even more banal than what I put on LJ. And I have succeeded! Or maybe lost, but that's up for interpretation.

Oh, you and me both.

But that's okay. It's rather entertaining. For example, I just scanned your twitter and saw the comment about index finger v. ring finger lengths...

Of course, I promptly checked mine out. And then freaked myself out by realizing that one appears longer if I look at my palm, and the other appears longer if I look at the back of my hand.

I'm still not sure how that works - so I quit looking so I'd no longer feel like I'm deformed. *headdesk*

Totally forgot about that place existed, but gotta say that I'm amused that it failed just like everyone expected it to.

FanLib: *reacts non-reactively*

Twitter: I No Haz a Twitteh. I Can Haz Twitteh Nao?

I'd forgotten all about Fanlib. Huh. Its passing to me is as monumental as its life.

FanLib: *dances on site's grave*

Twitter: Friended er...followed you. http://twitter.com/shallanelprin

same reaction as everyone else, I think, re fanlib. I did sort of know they existed since they invited me to join, but once I saw how crap the site was I didn't. Never looked at it again after that, or thought about it until I heard the news.

*has no clue what either site is, though I have heard of twitter...*

ooh, twitter. i'm still trying to figure out how to get twitter posts to feed to my lj, because apparently it's possible, and i'm a nerd.

OMG did you just see Dr. Who!!!!!!!

*is freaking out*

I havent been this excited for Dr Who in AGES!

So...your being on made me decide to finally check out this weird thing called twitter I keep hearing about. I still don't get it -- the "click" hasn't happened yet. However, I did get an account. ZephyrRS...original, eh?

I will follow the adventures of Mhalachai (just HOW do you pronounce that?)

[identity profile] malfoymercy.livejournal.com 2008-07-26 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
whoa. srsly? thats kind of exciting. :p

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2008-07-26 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
I know! Who woulda thunk I'd ever get back into social networking?

*rimshot*

just kidding :D

[identity profile] malfoymercy.livejournal.com 2008-07-26 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
lmao.

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2008-07-26 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
I pronounce it with a silent H: MalaKai. The reasoning behind the name is simple: When I came to LJ back in '02, Malachai was taken.

In some things, I'm not very deep.

For me, Twitter is a great way to update the Internet with the portions of my life too boring for an LJ post. Plus I can do it from my cell phone, for long bus rides and walks on the beach and stuff.

It occurs to me that I'm too connected to the internet, but whatever. It's not like it's a *problem* or anything...

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2008-07-26 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
I have *not* seen Dr. Who beyond the two-parter. I've downloaded them, but I haven't watched yet! No idea why. I need to remedy that.

But Dr. Who rocks, in any event. Maybe I'll get to those this weekend.

Fanlib? Got to admit I'd never heard of it, and I thought I knew most of the major multi-genre fanfic sites.

Well, you do still appreciate nature so I think you'll be OK. ;-)

And you think I am! :D

Oh, I forgot to mention that I thought it was Mhalachai swords :D

Twitter! Everyone's coming over. 8-) (silver_venus42)

Twitter = win. It's like the best mental spamming of LJ without the wank. O RLY.

[identity profile] mhalachaiswords.livejournal.com 2008-07-27 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that. I started as a non-ficcer on LJ as Mhalachai, and then one day I was all, I should have a writing journal and thought that Mhalachai's words would be a nice name.

Ten minutes later, I'm banging my head into the desk because I now have "swords" in my name.

Lesson learned: proofread twice, hit sumbit once. (although it's obvious that it didn't bother me all that much)

[livejournal.com profile] ancientcitadel suggested I reread the name and I went OHHHHHH!!!! You know like an epiphany. :D

[identity profile] ladycolete.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
All righty then. I signed up on twitter (like I need another site on the internet to be on! Oh well!) I'll be following you (oohh sounds like I'm stalking you!). My name on it is Starr4all.
