Anyone ever make a LiveJournal a true journal?
So I've been contemplating making a LiveJournal for the past few days (actually for quite a while now), and I really like the idea. However, the one part about the whole online journaling thing is that they aren't true journals. Nobody names names, nobody speaks out, nobody gives their true opinion, and in my opinion that’s key to a journal. All they do is spew crap about how their day went and how much they hate stupid crap that doesn't really matter. No so and so is being a bitch, or so and so has given me yet another reason why I hate girls, etc.
So, I'm wondering, has anyone here actually started an online journal that their friends could see and such and actually make it like a real journal? I am just worried that everyone would just end up hating me, but even that isn't that bad of a deal because all my true friends are back home anyway :)
So discuss. Maybe my idea is retarded.
