How I Found These Nifty People

[infrogmation]

Froggy does one of those "Where do you know your LJ "friends" from" lists:


corax Former New Orleanian, found via jaffo.

davidgrenier Via ernunnos.

dragonflysister via the antiwar community

ernunnos probably first saw his LiveJournal via Devi, but we'd interacted years earlier on Usenet, I think first in alt.fan.wednesday, then more extensively in alt.politics.jaffo in the late '90s. His friends page is one of the "friends of friends" I look at most often.

flummox Kibologist (from alt.religion.kibology Usenet newsgroup)

geeklet via antiwar

girl_on_a_stick also via antiwar

infrogmation Who I see in my mirror.

ivan_durak Via antiwar. The other person whose friends page I look at more often than most. One of my favorite LJ writers.

jaffo Usenet ark & apj. I think I first saw a LiveJournal from a link on Jaffo's webpage-- but it linked to his friend page without explanation. It seemed a bunch of articles unrelated to eachother or Jaffo's essays. I didn't know what it was and wasn't intrigued enough to find out at the time.

littledevi from a.r.k. Devi is the one who introduced me to LiveJournal, when she moved her journal here from elsewhere.

mockument found on debate

pentomino fellow a.r.k.'er from way back.

pequet Uh, don't recall where found, but Pequet posts some very interesting stuff.

pootrootbeer ARKer

portia found via ernunnos

schwa242 another Kibologist

sunburn Yet another Kibologist, one I actually met once In Real Life, but has not actually posted anything in his journal. Yet!

testcase ARK again

tomscud ditto.

vardissakheli Yet another.

vyoma found via antiwar. Vyoma founded & moderates the nonviolent community.

weds I first became aware of Wednesday via her xposts in alt.slack before I found a.r.k, where she was a major presence in the mid 90s. AFAIK, the only person I've met in real life who uses LiveJournal (sunburn has an account, but can't be said to use it. Yet.).

wyld_west found via ernunnos

yonder ARKitypical Kibologist. Fans clammor for more posts by YonderSutter.

I wish I could remember how I added my friends to my friends list. My mind isn't that focused which makes me sad. I just added you and all I can tell you is that you showed up on my journal, I don't know how, and after reading your posts I think you're pretty brilliant and a good being as well : )

Hugs,

Thanks! I added you to my list as well. Hmmm, I can't recall where I first saw a comment by you, but I followed one to your interesting journal. Your selection of vintage illustrations are a treat!
