Do you know your Daily Kos neighbor? Did you know you had one? Here's how to find yours:
- Find a comment of yours or post one.
- Click your name.
- The URL you arrive at will be in the form of http://www.dailykos.com/user/uid:X
X is your user ID! Now start adding and subtracting from that number until you find something interesting. Most of the people in your neighborhood are likely to be lurkers, or people who were active in, say, 2005. But you'll likely find some interesting folks living nearby...
I'm UID 80, so my neighbors are a mix of legends past and present. UID 77 is Pontificator! And UID 84 is Roastbeef, whose name I remember from pre-Scoop days, and whose last post regrets, in 2005, that Daily Kos has jumped the shark. And it has a goatse reference!
But rather than have me tell you about my neighbors, tell me, who are yours?
Update: Don't just add one or subtract one and give up. My neighbor's homes are empty, too -- I blame the housing slump. Just keep walking around your block!
