I'm guessing that you guys have probably heard of Ello, a new social networking site. (Yes, yet another one.) What I like about this one, though, is that its business model is more akin to LJ's than Facebook's or Twitter's, i.e. you're the customer and not the product. Ello is also pretty well designed, even if it is in beta. I've posted all of one entry. If you want an invitation, hit me up. It's pretty quiet over there so far.

You may ask, at least if you're me, "Why can't LJ be again what it once was?" I'd love to think that it can be, but I think LJ's management let its interface languish for too long, and now it's acquired a patina of age that will prove impossible to scrub away on the internet. [livejournal.com profile] nerds_eye_view describes LJ as "retro".

Yahh, I'd be interested in giving it a try. Might turn out that I'm the very first (ahem) collier lass....

I cannot figure out how to post on there? Or respond to your posts?

I don't have time for this. Can I have an invite anyway?
