If Six Apart acquires Live Journal....

Email This Entry

Posted by danah boyd

As Ross noted earlier, there is gossip in the air that Six Apart will acquire LiveJournal. I’m concerned about the cultural effects of this, some of which i’ve addressed in a rather verbose entry entitled The Cultural Divide Between LiveJournal and Six Apart. This may be of interest those of you invested in cultural maintenance of social sites.

I’ve turned off comments here so that they can be connected with the entry itself.
