Sit On Your Butt and Be Counted!

In case you've missed it, it's been a busy month in on-line fandom. First, there was FanLib. Then, Strikethrough '07.
In response to the latter, a couple of fans decided to see if there was a way to assess exactly how many of Livejournal's journals belong to fans or are used for fannish purposes--discussion, roleplaying, fan fiction, gaming, anime, etc. So, they created
fandom_counts, and asked fans to join with all their fannish journals. As of this posting, less than 48 hours after the journal's creation, there are over 31,000 members.
If you'd like your journal(s) to be part of the count, just go to
fandom_counts' profile page and join with all your fannish journals.
Or, if you're bored, you can just keep refreshing the page and watch the numbers go up.
