Online journals.. What can I choose from if I wanted one?

Live Journal is slow. Beside that it is a great site.

But.... its as slow as molasses, and is very sketchy. Your luck of the server actually being up is as good as the flip of a coin. I wouldn't recommend it.

It's really not THAT bad... It generally is a lot slower than your average site, but you're almost always able to access it. Occasionally you'll get an error when you log in saying that your journal is unavailable or something similar, but it's almost always working.

Mmmhmm - the last few weeks they've been moving all of thier stuff to a different server, so it's been going down more than usual. Even with this, I've hardly had any problems getting on the site.

I have a Deadjournal (sorry no link ) and I love it. All the upside of Livejournal, without the outages or slow pages. But, you have to know someone who has one. Sorry, I used my invite a long time ago and it's gone farther than I can track it.
I also have a LJ account but it's mainly for commenting in other people's journals. And I just joined the FIRST community.

I came close to switching to blogger the other day. They look so much nicer compared to most people's LJs.

And, as Brandon said, Wordpress.
