Thanks for posting about the LiveJournal Browser. I didn’t know about it. I’m very interested in any technologies being built to search and browse the emerging “people web” the way that the old technologies search and browse the web of documents. So far there’s no way to search the “people web” as a whole, but things like this are a promising start. Thanks again.
