I have this thing against Xanga Minis.

It brings me this cringy laughable feeling. Something in the back of my mind tells me that xanga has been overcome by a new internet revolution...called Facebook. Or not overcome..but just..temporarily challenged, shall I say? And xanga shoots for a new move: Xanga Themes. Good move xanga. I applaud...even though it put me out of business...but I'm ok with that now. But then...suddenly on the bottom of every comment box in the whole world of xanga appears.....*gasp*......a little picture of a monkey with eyes shaped like bananas. Aw. And I can give him to someone, to brighten their day!....For only...250 credits. Hm. Credits. Credits? Where do they come from? Xanga usage, and money...................................<I shall not repeat................
And this is going to save xanga from the mighty muscles of Facebook...
...
...
I laugh
...
...
Now I'm not going to pull out a credit card or bother with paypal just to give a xanga mini, especially when I could mail somebody a card 50 times more special. And less expensive too. How much does a xanga mini cost? 5 bucks for 1250 credits. Exactly one dollar for the little monkey...
There is the other way though. This post got me 6 credits. So all I have to do now is post 42 times. *cringe* *left eye twitches uncontrolably* *grabs eye* Then I could send I card saying: I posted 42 times for you! *twitch* *twitter*
...
Or maybe people get credits other ways too.
Maybe this is a good move after all.
But I just have to say xanga: my left eyelid doesn't agree.
...
Even so, you made a big step...
..or a little one, but a step nonetheless...
so I'll look forward to seeing the xanga-life changing things you make........
but until then...
I shall sit back and frown at the banana-eyed monkey.

OH yeah ... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the heading!

Makes me feel kinda thpethial, even if it is only my name when i am on here and others names for them ... you be berry cleavour!

Sigh ... yes, our xanga ... the personal, sweet xanga is looking awefully plasticy of late isn't it.  I would have to agree that they need to find a xanga personality for us here... not the hype of facebook ... though if they had something like doodly add ons like yahoo has that we could sit and doodle on the same board at the same time with our dear friends around the world ... or deface a photo ... or play noughts and crosses live ......that would be an amazing adventure.

Oh and the price to send a piece of mail from where you are to Brisbane where I am? 

75c AUS

Blessings matey,

Oh, so that's how you get credits. I must not post very much, I only have two. I even looked at the mini's this morning, but none of them looked worth it to me. I'll just comment instead. :)

Sounds like you've been thinking....really hard....thinking on deep situations...thinking in the deep reality of facebook and xanga....Good thinking Josh.

Actually, I think it's a combination of multiple sites which have the option of "gifts".

Consider if you will this site (mine):
http://www.myyearbook.com/?mysession=cmVnaXN0cmF0aW9uX3Byb2ZpbGUmdXNlcmlkPTc5MDEwMw==

This site is a combination of Myspace and Facebook. Along with these two we've named, there also are supposed to be about 4 more sites with similar "gifting" possibilities.

Personally I prefer yearbook over both myspace and facebook. Always have, perhaps I always will. I prefer almost all sites to those two sites. But my point is that Yearbook had "gifts" you could give your friends LOOOOOOONG before facebook got the idea. Yearbook's gifts are very very very easy to give. And the points needed to buy them, are easily attained. (every time you log in, go to someone's site, rate someone, talk to someone (message them) etc... you get points, which they call "bucks" or something.) For example, I've been a member of the site for over a year and if I hadn't spent the "bucks" on anything, I'd have over a million points. You can buy many many things with these. And it's been rumored that if you don't spend them but you continue to build them up, that they eventually translate into the real world. I heard tell of several people who got clothing out of the deal. But I'm not a "good" enough member to earn that many points. I just go every now and again.

Anyway...

The idea is alright... but I do think that Xanga is a bit to far behind the game.

Catch you laters.

btw: good to hear from you... was beginning to wonder if you were still alive!

Oh yeah... fyi, I think when you comment people and when you log in on here you get more points. (I had 6 yesterday, I logged in twice, I now have 10)

Happy Birthday Josh...

So you don't like the Kubb game just because you won at it....well that's a good thing.  Siblings put strange unwanted things on their xangas don't they?

ryc-hahaha...yeah..I guess it is a test...actually, dad insisted that i put it...Cause he says that I always get an overload of comments...regardless of the post...and he wanted to see just how many comments I would get on a "no brainer" post...which I am letting him find out...but it just might make him even madder, huh?

Ha!  Think I did already...

When I got my braces off the orthodontist lady handed me a bag of candy and said, "Here's all the candy that you weren't allowed to eat when you had braces."

I took the candy...kinda looked at her and replied, "I think I ate all these when I had braces."

She responded, "Yeah, believe me...we know with all those braces you broke!"

*Ducks, adjusts halo."

He he...... :P.

Yeah, and when I think about it and my asnwer comes, I learn something new about myself.  And silently I spaz....thinking...everthinking....then it becomes normal and something new comes up.

If that didn't make sense, it's because, I'm....ha ha...tired.

Right now, I hardly know who I am.
