1.17% of the population of the USA has a LiveJournal account?

That seems very, very inaccurate.

Yeah, I highly doubt it. LJ seems too counter-culutrey to be that popular among amerdicans.

Meredith makes a good point, I forgot about communities, as well as super-secret hidey journals that some folks make.

[meredith.livejournal.com]

i personally have 2 accounts. i love throwin off stats!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

Ha! I wonder if they count my communities?

I have 4 total, then!

Take that, dirty statistics!

[myid8myego.livejournal.com]

Lies, damned lies, and statistics :-)

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

mmm. statistics stay crunchy, even in milk!

Well, I have about 6 lj accounts, most of which I can't remember my password for, and my contact email has expired. I would be willing to be that is something that happens a lot. I wonder how many regularly updating journals is in that number?

d.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

it looks like about one journal in six is actually active... according to the stts page.

[i.livejournal.com]

yep, three accounts, three communities.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

so you're 600 people or so accounted for right there!

don't forget that he also used census data which is as a rule highly inaccurate.

but I do believe a goodly percent of them FL LJ users are here in Orlando.

Independent Bar here has a good 70% LJ user tally on any given night. And that's just people I can identify.

That's craziness! I think SoFla has all the teenybopper LJers, and a couple of old farts thrown in to th emix just to keep it interesting.

[uberbastard.livejournal.com]

yeah, as I remember the LJ thing down south was all HS. I felt a little creepy even lookin around sofla communities.

[rejectomorph]

I've had four accounts, only two of which remain active.

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

hmm.. I want the average number of accounts each user has?

[rejectomorph]

That would be handy. It's possible that no more than half of all active non-community journals are owned by unique individuals. But it's obvious that the actual LJ user base is much smaller than the raw statistics suggest.

[juliabee.livejournal.com]

I have about 8 accounts. I've forgotten most of them, except for 3..that I use once a year or so. :P

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

8!!!

That's got to be a record!

Multi-faceted bee!
