LG15 is a Community
Amanda has asked me to write a weekly entry on Inside LG15. She had to prod me a few times, but here’s my first post. Look for a new one each Wednesday. I’m going to focus on internet technology and how it relates to the LG15 Universe and our company. So… today I just want to put out there that LG15 is more than simply a couple of web serials (lonelygirl15 and KateModern), it’s a community. The LG15 Universe extends beyond the shows that we produce and includes every member of the community on LG15, Bebo, Facebook, LG15 Today, and many other websites. We’ve been inching along at making the LG15 website more robust, but as you know it’s taken some time. Nonetheless a vibrant community has formed around a show that began with a girl who made video blogs in her bedroom.
What makes a community? There’s the technology (profile pages, messaging, chat, forums, etc.), but most importantly it’s the collection of people that share similar interests. In the case of LG15, all of you share an interest in lonelygirl15 and/or KateModern, but you also share a lot of other interests. As LG15 evolves and we add new features to the website, this will become a place for you to interact with your friends and interact with the shows. So, don’t just sit back and click the play button… sign up for a profile, comment on the videos, talk in the forums, join the chat, and contribute to growing database of everything LG15 in the LGPedia. LG15 is a community and we want you to be part of the fun. Oh… most importantly check out the live event coming up in San Francisco. W00T!

I signed up to the forum a while ago, but felt i couldn’t/can’t post there, as 1. Theres a lot of sections and im unsure where to post if i wanted, and 2. Even if i did post, il probably not get chance to get a point i have/had across, it would get missed.
However, i always read the lgpedia when a new video comes out, i read the notes for things ive missed. I also try to comment all the time on youtube. There used to be a time when Daniel replied in character on youtube comments, but now, no sign. I used to get a few comment replys from the danielbeast channel.
I have my own website, and i have promoted LG15 in my signature displays a lot, but very few people follow lg15 on their and other places.

I totally agree! How exciting it is to be a part of this community. We do all have similar interests and I love to log on in different areas to see my friends. These are exciting times and I for one am so glad to be involved.
