New public journals

I often go to the list of LJ users and read a couple of random journals. This is how I discover new public journals here.

You may remember how I discovered George Bush's fall from grace a while ago (see here). And all kinds of random things catch my attention there, like this one.

A couple of days ago I went to the list again. This time it was full of neighbours writing about the same stuff. Here my LJ friend [livejournal.com profile] bunn and I are both talking about dogs just next to each other:



Our take on this topic in those entries couldn't have been more different I think (mine is just two entries below this one).

How do you discover new public journals here?

Hm. I don't look enough to get a feel for what is most common. The people on add-me.livejournal.com are looking for friends, sometimes very selectively, and their journals may or may not be friends only.

Sometimes, I go to http://maps.livejournal.com/ and enter information on my excursions. You can find other journals that way with entries by location at times. Have you been there?

No I haven't used maps, thanks for sharing, this is interesting.
