I'm considering pretty much nuking my friends list of anyone who posts more frequently than once every couple of days.

The reason for this is that I want to go back to reading peoples pages from their journal pages, and just use the friends page to keep track of people who update so rarely that I might miss them otherwise. I've started getting lazy and just reading my friends page, which means that I end up reading every post out of context, and I miss out on seeing them in the layouts that they are supposed to be presented in.

It's one of the ironies of LJ that everyone spends ages on styling their journals, and the only time anyone sees them is once, when you post "Hey! I've updated my style!".

A preliminary experiment has shown that this is most likely going to cause a bunch of people to unfriend me. Which will kind-of suck, since I'll lose the ability to read friends-only posts. On the other hand, I don't make friends-only posts, so the only thing you'll be missing out on is a nice green arrow in your client window.

Anyway, c'est la vie.
