Its also worth mentioning that "friending" is a bit of a misnomer - people take it personally but all it really implies is "this is a user who I'd like to read regularly" (kind of like an RSS feed I suppose). It also allows that person to see any posts you lock to "friends only". But even then you can post private posts too. Its all passworded.

I know many people who do just that. They have one public post that says "this journal is friends only", in case someone stumbles on the blog. Every other post is filtered.
I filter work posts, drug ones, etc.

also maybe you want friends to be able to find out how you are doing if you want to you don't want strangers to know, and you don't want to impose upon other people by emailing them maybe it's just a tone thing. when you email people it's normally something more significant. like how phonecalls are more significant than text messages and you won't call someone just to say "lol i just saw a roadsign that says 'wetwang' on it, bye!" because sometimes life is more than just a one minute phonecall. -- ken c (pykachu10...), October 13th, 2005 12:09 PM.

same problem with handwritten letters.

you put it on livejournal you can change it afterward and possibly before the other person sees it. can't with email -- ken c (pykachu10...), October 13th, 2005 12:05 PM. (ken c) (later) (link)
SAME PROBLEM WITH ILX TOO, YOU SEE.

Who doesn't love a little bit of glitter tossed around hither and thither though?

"Tom", you mean! No, apart from "Tom". Take a look:

I really should write something to put in it. Or maybe I could start whining incessantly on the blog bit.

how do you do this?
On the Edit Information page, just tick the box for "Minimize your journal's inclusion in search engine results."

It's a fair question and the answer is I want to make it a little more special than just a normal email. Even with a standard blog design it would look as though some effort went into it (and it is going to be far too long in terms of content for a standard email or Hotmail attachment).
The content is not particularly person-specific, and I'm not bothered about people randomly stumbling across it on Google - it's simply that I would like this person to see it first (and if anyone else likes it it's a bonus yes I know) 'cos basically it is for her.
