So anyone besides Alex finding an outlet for this sort of thing?

Kevy - I've had the exact same experience recently and found even when I wanted to participate and be engaged it was hard to get back to the original post (despite Facebooks relentless keeping of everything everybody says). I find if I don't keep commenting on a topic it vanishes from my feed.

Greg - don't miss the combative exchanges, but I miss the thoughtful musings people would share - beyond the status statement.

Maybe it's time to dust off the Live Journal and learn some Russian.
