Just Being a Geek

So what is it that attracts you to reading, adding, following someone's writing here on LJ? One of the things I look at, but in many ways don't apparently apply that much 'weight' to, is their Interests list. You know, that thing that LJ offers us to put down the things that interest us, and which help provide a search hook for other people. Or yourself, if you're looking. Now, I rather arbitrarily limit my Interest List. There's a reason for that, and a few people even clued into it. That's cool. But because of that limitation (even if I change things around periodically) there are a lot of things which show up on other people's lists which won't receive the LJ Shared In Common highlighing, yet are shared in common.

Ever wonder about that? ( Obviously, I do... )
