State of the LJ

So where is everybody these days?

I'm just wondering. I have accounts at JF, IJ, DW, FB, Twitter. I don't do fannish stuff on FB & Twitter, but I'm not certain there's much of a fannish presence there, considering the size of fics and such.

I haven't been monitoring IJ or DW at all.

Is DW growing? Are there more fics and fans to be found there? Should I start watching DW again?

What are your fannish social media habits like right now, flist? I'm very curious.

ETA: Oh, and where are you archiving? I'm really liking AO3, personally, and I'm seeing that some fandoms are using it more and more.

A couple of people on my flist x-post to DW. I tried that, but found it tedious. Plus, it creeped me out when someone commented on an entry because it showed up in some "what's new today?" thing.

I have a FB account, and a tumblr account - but that's just for pics. I honestly don't know why people call tumblr a blog.

I don't get the hype around twitter. I find it mostly boring.

I'm just a little wary of xposting to DW. I just feel like I want it to be centralized, y'know? I don't want to have two different discussions. :(

Twitter is kind of annoying, yes, and I don't really care about links, which is Twitter's fuel, so I'm immediately at odds with it. It's only for business, though, so I try to tolerate it. *nodnod*

I feel the same way about DW. And from what I can tell, not many people on my flist who x-post get much if any traffic over there.
