because this place is my neighborhood more than Williamsburg or Greenpoint or Los Feliz or Farmington, where a neighborhood has the classic interpretation of barn-raisings and neighborhood-watch and coveting thy neighbor's wife and celebrating one another on various secular holidays and looking after one another's various crises.

I think part of what's made LJ such a great place for hmm...how to say it...I guess maybe "cutting edge" fandom? "organized" fandom? is it's interconnectivity. Because sure, an LJ *can* opperate like a blog, but I find blogs more...isolationist? individual? loner-like? than LJs.
Granted that makes indexing LJ entries difficult, but gah, the *community*. ::beams::
