greenstormI'm kind of pleased with the forum-style conversations that are going on in the livejournal. I mentioned something before (and have been harping on) the fact that it isn't 'real' communication. I think that a couple of these have turned into some kind of actual communication-feeling thing for me, where perhaps I don't feel like the original post was communicated but that there is some interaction going on in the comments about neat ideas.
I've always liked forum-style communications in that you get to have an 'ordered' conversation -- unlike RL everyone can say their bit where they need to without cutting anyone off, and can take time to think their responses out.
So I really like this. I may need to figure out some way to keep the interesting discussions on the front page, or something. Is there a way to set LJ to display last-altered (commented or posted to) at the top instead of the last-posted only format?
