They are apparently also completely changing their interface to act more like Twitter!
No.
Why do companies/blog sites do this? The reason I'm on Tumblr, is because it's Tumblr. I also have a Twitter. THEY SERVE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS IN MY ONLINE/SOCIAL NETWORKING STUFF.
This is just all so screwed up and stupid. And EVERYONE on Tumblr who has had the new interface pushed on them is SHRIEKING back to Tumblr that it does not work and actually inhibits how they interact with the site. There was something in release about streaming the site to function more like their mobile app. Again, NO.
The reason a mobile app needs to be so stripped down and bare bones and function differently is because that's on like a 3 inch screen. Your actual website does not need to imitate your mobile app. Your WEBSITE should be coded and formatted to work with computers and laptops that have 17" monitors.
LJ is becoming Tumblr. Tumblr is becoming Twitter. I guess Twitter will soon become Facebook and Facebook will be MySpace? Is the day coming when I'm finally just done with the internet in its entirety and just check email and IM with people?
