  • LiveJournal is publishing its own statistics.  The two most interesting: 1) of 932,081 users, 425,901  (46%) are considered ‘active’ (meaning the other blogs are defunct); 2) of their bloggers who ‘declare’ gender, 63.4% are female and 36.6% are male.


    The latter breakdown on gender (slightly less than 2:1 female) is precisely the breakdown I’ve noticed on Xanga over the last couple years.  That reminds me of the refrain from Surf City (Brian Wilson and Jan Berry):


    And we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
    You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun
    You know we're goin' to Surf City, 'cause it's two to one
    You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun, now
    Two girls for every boy



    Oh, by the way, as a ‘paid member’’ to LiveJournal, I have a few free LiveJournal accounts available for ‘friends’ (you see, if you don’t pay, it’s free but by invitation from ‘paid members’ only) and I’m hereby inviting first-comers (since I have too few friends ) until I run out (of friends? no, I mean ‘accounts’).  But you can only have one (if I have any left—friends? no, I mean ‘accounts’!!) if you don’t quit Xanga dammit!
