Who are you?

[yesthattom]

[Seen in lots of journals...] I know very little about some of the people who read my journal. Some people I know relatively well. Some of you I hardly know at all; we've never met and we've had little real chat-together. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. I thank you, regardless, for reading me and friending me. Please take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Oh, yes, I remember, there's so-and-so, they like spinach!" I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this, especially the people I know well already. You can try to throw in something Totally Unexpected if you like, Dear Readers. I'm curious to hear about you.

How do I know thee?

[antuvschle]

You friended me first, and at the time I had just been introduced to a bunch of folks who hang out in IRCland with the likes of catya and shayde. You had her as a friend so I assumed you were of that ilk but I don't think I had met you on channel so it seemed fairly random/odd to me. I mean, my journal is friends-only so it's not like random people friend me. But I checked out your userinfo, and more than half of your interests are either bolded already or are also my interests that I either didn't think to list or prefer not to list publicly... so I added you back. I guess I lurk, mostly. I don't know whether you lurk in my journal or filter me out. Perhaps we should find each other on AIM sometime because it seems that with all we have in common it could be an interesting chat.

I think it was the juxtaposition of network topology and bdsm-- how many people would list two things so different and so important to me? I just checked-- we're the only two on LJ who do. It seems likely that we're connected on the graph of our poly lives.

Cool! I'd love to hang out and talk about network topology some time!
