  • XANGA METROS


    Today we’re introducing a whole new feature: Xanga Metros.


    For a long time, our users have been asking us, “How can I find Xangans in my local area?”  Originally, we experimented with using zip code to power local search… but that just freaked us out.  Who wants to risk having your zip code floating around out there?!  So we created Xanga Metros – a large metro area that you can join, like Los Angeles, Montreal, or Singapore.  For example, I just joined the New York City metro.  If you check it out, you can see some of our New York Xangans…


    Monsur, Marc, and I inputted hundreds of metros into the system, from Dhaka, Bangladesh (where Monsur was born) to Hanover, NH (where Marc and I met in college).  But of course, we missed some metros as well… which is why every Country and State has a “Suggest a Metro” feature at the bottom.  So please help us out, and if you don’t see your metro in there… suggest it, and we’ll add it to our system!


    You can check out Xanga Metros here:

  • awesome!  sounds like a great feature!  =)

    –jeff aka godofphotoshop

  • Very cool you guys!

  • hmm, neat feature

  • i think that many people will find this feature useful.  not me, of course.  but, you know.  others.

  • that’s so cool. i joined.

  • okalee dokalee.

  • where is vatican city?

  • but isn’t it just like a blogring??

  • cool, makes it easier to stalk people.  no, i am not the stalker.  but, yeah, it would make it too easy. 

  • Interesting.

  • Very cool… But I want to keep my identity secret.

  • Coolio. I joined a metro =)

  • You should make it so you can display it on ur xanga page

  • Won’t this become obsolete after hundreds/thousands of people join?

    I mean, it’s a good idea, but it seems impractical.

  • Interesting! Great idea!  Much better than the zip codes by far!

  • That’s a lovely feature, thank you.

  • It’s okay.
    But I think the drop down menu for choosing a country should have stayed. What if you don’t want to join a metro but still want to say which country your from?
    with metros, people who want to do that, people like me, cannot. I want to state what country I’m from but I do not wish to join a metro.

  • OK you definitely forgot Doylestown metro in PA

  • Woohoo! ****ing awesome! Yayness!

    ~Depreciated

  • cool

  • only one metro at a time?  i travel from one place to another every week, hehe.  i must join two metros~ 

  • that is cool, cool. keep up the good work!

  • Extraordinary, as always.  Believe me, I really enjoyed meeting a couple of the Xanga team in Champaign!  Thanks once again for the T-shirt.  God, it looks good on me!

  • why doesn’t my ‘metro’ show up on my xanga page?

  • Wow, that’s really cool…

  • neat feature..  =)

  • It looks cool but I’m wondering, for the Pennsylvania metros, is Bethlehem counted as Allentown (cuz I know that Bethlehem is sometimes overlooked and counted as Allentown, the weather channel does it all the time) or is there going to be a separate Bethlehem metro?

  • coolios!! thx!

  • awsome!! it’s better then the zip codes for sure!

  • Of course ruling more over the net as usual. Awsomeness, I had to throw in Manteca to represent the small town lmao. Good job peoples

  • BOMB.

  • Only on this planet?

  • yay

  • …interesting..

  • Good stuff! It seems like “My Metro” is not showing up on my page… Is it supposed to show up?

  • this is neat. thank you guys :)

  • wow, only today, i looked a a lot of people have them already. hmm, xangas grow fast

  • Are you a Darthmouth Alumni?

  • by the way, maybe you could make it where you only join a country, and not necessarily a state / province / territory

  • awesome dudes =)

  • THATS great thanks I added my metro

  • Cool, thanks!

  • Make a Yokosuka metro in the Japan section.

  • good call.

  • Rad

  • i think that idea rocks!

  • awesome idea. ummm theres a problem on my site..people can’t comment. if u have any time, that would be awesome if ya could check it out.

  • cool idea. any chance metros can be displayed on our xangas and/or subscriptions page?

  • cool man .. thanx ..

  • bout time, bitches

  • woohoo what a fabulous idea thanks xanga team…u have my vote lol

    Love and sunshine

    Kaziophia

  • kool beans  what an awesome feature

  • this is cool..dude..

  • Hey, that’s cool

  • excellent work!!!

  • sweet this should be pretty interesting

  • great

  • good idea. zip codes were too risky.

  • Good plan.

  • oh happy happy! Joy Joy!

  • Pretty cool… wondering when Xanga will add RSS?

  • the idea is great and useful. :D

  • interesting… just when i thought xanga couldn’t get any better… = )

  • thats a good idea…but i dont want people to know where i live ^_^

  • awesome!!!!!

  • great new feature.

  • Hey, is there any way for it to be seen on our xanga sites?

  • So… we can only join one?

  • Oh, people who visit our sites can see our Metros…

  • Hey, you should make something so that we can join more than eight blogrings…

  • Sounds pretty cool.  I live in a low xanga-populated area, so it would be nice to come across others from around.

  • hmmmmmmmm, what scares me is that there are many YOUNG metros under the age of 15 in there…. and they are handing out phone numbers and telling just where it is they  live…. ACK! I know they do it anyways…. but it freaks me out

  • Really it’s about time. Awesome you deserve way more eProps!

  • It’s AWESOME!!! But I wish we can somehow join more than just ONE metro… cause some of us may have “two homes”… or different locations at different times of the year. Anyway, GOOD JOB! :)

  • Awesome dudes! I highly enjoy this very much!!! Thanks!

  • VERY nice feature. Kudos. :]

  • another thing to add might be college towns.. theyre not always metros… but college students use xanga more than any other… so even a town of 50K might have more users than one of 500k thats not a college :-/

  • fun

  • Was nice to see the members in my metro area, though I found out I’m 33 to 47 years older than all of them…..Feeling really old right now…..LOL

  • Smart!  I think this definitely qualifies as some sweetness!  Good job, y’all!

  • Not sure how you could accomodate this situation.. I live in Chicago but go to school in Texas.  I realize that if you opened up the Metro thing to where everyone could have limitless Metros, it’d be a disaster.  Maybe some genius out there could figure out a way for me to show that I call both places home..  Just a thought!

  • awesome!!! supportz!!!

  • Greetings!!

    a definite two thumbs up for dis feature. thks TEAM XANGA.

    peace from da gangsta. as always. at ya service.

  • Alright i get to find some ladies near me! Yay :P

  • Thank u

  • What a great thing you all did! Now does that mean since I’m the oldest one listed in mine that I will get slammed?

  • Nifty idea.  But where on our home page can we find this section?  Can we have a link to it on our front page so other people know what Metro we’re from?  Thanks

  • how do you show/list your metros on your xanga?  i know how to show my blogrings, and subscriptions…but how do i do the same thing with my metros?  jack

  • Also, joining more than 1 metro would be nice for a college student like me who dorms in one place, but still has residence at a different location.

  • Awesome feature! But I’m hoping to see my metro up there soon…

  • i like it…i like it alot

  • oooh i like!

  • I always knew that there were a lot of kids on xanga, but my goodness! When I browsed through my metro (Oklahoma City) they were almost all under 20.

  • so is this going to have a little section on our xangas like blogrings does? that’s be kida cool. it’d be nice if it was optional, though.

  • love it!

  • Your idea of a metro is kind of “Manhattanesque.” Most of the world thinks differently. While a “New York” region might be logical for some, a “Brooklyn” one makes far more sense for others, and perhaps a “Fort Greene” one even more for others.

    Away from New York you’re missing the way the world divides. Census “MSA”s have little meaning, cultural splits create different divisions. For example: Grand Rapids, Michigan really functions as “Grand Rapids” – “Holland-Grand Haven-Saugatuck” – and “Muskegon”

    If you want this to function as a blogring alternative, make it flexible enough to wrap around people’s sense of where “home” is.

  • What? No members in Cotonou, Benin yet??? 

  • With regards to thenarrator above, yes, you need to have a location called ‘heart’ since home is where the ‘heart’ is.

  • very cool man!

  • metros… they cool =]] hii mah names ayasha

    =]

  • it’s cool… i joined my metro! =P

  • Awesome, very!

  • nice feature

  • John I would your help along with Marc’s. There’s a person on Xanga who has been comming to my site and many others. Please make this person stop harrassing us.

    Luna

  • thanks.

  • awesome!!!!! thanks!!!

  • HAHHAHH it says that Im 9. That’s not good.

  • Good idea, but what about those of us who don’t live near a metro? You should add an “Outstate” option for us.

  • Such a rad idea!

  • Hurrah for Dartmouth.  The only semi-”metro” in an otherwise rural region.  So, you’re Ivy Leaguers…the secret is out!

  • is it free?

  • ay sorry to disturb you guys but can you please put Alexandria in the metro thing.  thanks I would appreciate that. aight peace

  • WELL I JOINED ONE BUT HOW DO I FIND IT ON MY PAGE OR IS THERE A WAY FOR  ME TO GET TO BESIDES HAVING TO CLICK ON THE LINK ABOVE?

  • Can you allow it to be seen from my xanga page???

  • John, great idea – I checked it out, but for the San Diego Xanga Metro of th 265 already on board, 263 seem to fall into the 9-16 age group!! Is there any possibility in breaking it down into sub-groups by age? Now THAT would be cool.

    -cynthia in san diego and over 25…

  • mini man think u have good idea but he still hates u jk ;)      lol

  • good stuff .  see you in new york .

  • Hey, sweet idea!

    I had a question though, I tried adding two cities but they didn’t show up on the metros. Why?

  • koolioz!

  • Wow.. Sounds like a cool new feature.. I’m gonna join..:)

    -Angela

  • John, I read the sub-groups idea, by breaking it down in ages, and I think it’s a great idea. So, come on peeps back me up!!

  • nice page!!!

  • DOPENESS!!! Markus will try.

  • Cool idea. But also….

    I need help but no one has responded to me yet! I don’t have any programs on my comp. or anything but for some reason when I browse RANDOM xangas of people I DON’T KNOW and have NEVER subscribed to or even SEEN their username before, I CAN SEE THEIR PROTECTED POSTS. That makes me worry people can see my PPosts sometimes! What’s up w/ that?

    Someone please help =(

  • I suggested a metro, and in my profile it says I’m in it, but if I go to browse metros, it’s not listed. I’m assuming this is because you haven’t finilized it, but on the off chance it’s a bug thought I’d mention it.

  • Hey~
    It’s Cool.
    Bye

  • Yeah, same as Anumati… I suggested one but I guess it’s not “accepted” yet… but it DOES say i’m in it too.. lol..

  • Man… now we can’t make stupid puns like “State: of confusion” any more!

  • so, now we can’t put in our own state or country.  because well, that is no fun.

  • can you add Temecula, Murrietta, and Riverside please?

  • ill metro you.

  • Great idea! Now, can you make it so we can sort by age? That would help me find people I can relate to…people who aren’t still in high school!

    Thanks for keeping things always a changin here…

  • cool feature:) much thanx!

  • This is cool but I wonder:

    – what about folks who want to join more than one metro? For example, I would pick San Francisco AND Oakland because there isn’t just a “Bay Area” Metro. What about folks who live in one city but attend school in another — they might want to belong to two different metros.

    – How will this affect the Xanga groups for different metropolitan areas? Will those be absorbed?

  • Thos are great, but my town isnt listed so I would appreciate being able to join more than one (like the closer ones)

  • this sounds cool

  • awesome… but kinda scary..

  • Awesome new feature!

  • neat!

  • very cool… :D

  • the new xanga feature is awesome!

  • how do you report an abusive site? b/c http://www.xanga.com/va_uglies_703 is one of the most abusive xanga users there is, and i think he should be shut down immeadietly!!! 

    - becky

  • great, but I live in rural NM.  and I saw that your segest sead to only enter large metro politan areas, so to avoid ny coment being rejected off hand I thought a coment here might work better, so my sugestion is a large rural area:

    North America, United States, NewMexico, Rural SouthEast

  • really cool thing to come up with

  • hey john…i was told by xanga itself to learn about you. it’s like the matrix…i honestly haven’t learned much.  here are a few things you could tell me to help me in my mission to learn about john…that being you.

    1.  what makes you scream like a little girl?

    2.  can i tickle you?

    3.  are you ticklish?

    4.  do you read comics?

    5.  do you enjoy the company of your mother?

    6.  what is your favorite star trek episode.

    if you could clear all this up and give me the answers to this question i would be much appreciative.  i do not wish to upset xanga by not learning about you….

  • that’s wicked awesome! i love it.

  • yea I like the idea of breaking it down into ages. :)

  • That’s nice!

  • How neat

  • it seems to be a good idea……although i haven’t found a single real Italian in it…..

  • SWEET

    !!

  • sweeet

    niiice

    cool

    later dood

  • That… is really cool… … good job…

  • hj o

  • Some people will never be happy whatever you do, they are just tossers, but I LOVE this new feature. Thanks. Already been to everyone in the list over the age 25 in the UK

  • This John character you all speak of… who is he? (she asks)

  • hello..my name is Sarah um ya…so ok well bye…:)

  • coolness.

  • question: what about the ppl that are sorta suburbanites (20-30 miles out)?  what about something like xanga suburbs?  yeah, u ppl should try that; i’d join that ::smile::

  • props to that!

  • u droped ur ice cream

  • Word.

  • I live reside in two places so it would be cool to be able to be in more than one metro.  I joined one first and it then wanted to remove myself from that one to join the other instead.  It kept asking me to sign in, but then when I would put in my username and stuff it said it was wrong…. help!

  • hey!!it’s like the second time i visit ur xanga..!!nice xangerr btw………..i totally love xanga..!!! =] it’s totally cool ’bout metros…i gota go now..see ya…*winks*

                                                     -a.K.a AnNa

  • hi john… i’m highly disturbed by the fact that around 80 people joined the “San Bernadino” metro… the spelling of the city is San Bernardino. with an R. any way you could change that?

  • Nice idea

  • Add Framingham, MA to the list. we are the largest town, run by town meeting government in the United States.

     

    Mike

  • that’s awesome!!!!!! major props!!!!

  • here’s a suggestion.. for your out of the country metros… perhaps list the places of american military bases…?  eh???  i find a lot of the military members are in germany and other places.. so that would be cool for them to find each other that way.  just and idea…

  • yeah, i found metros by accident, then i came here and read more.  shocking.

  • Nice!! Heh now that I figured out the hard way I look at the front page lol.

    Go New York!

  • John – It’s CynCyn519 again…it appears that  schoolvoice likes my idea too. Even it you can’t work it out into sub-groups by age it IS a great idea though huh?! Hiring? I’m your idea person!!!

  • cool ^_^

  • I suggested a metro for Mississippi (MSMS) the other day, and it doesnt appear on the list. Is tehre a certain number that has to join? We have 4. Go Dawgs…Owen

  • yay, I’m so excited. Thanks a bunch, 1,000 e-props for you =)

  • Hi i don’t like to bother people but i was hoping you would be able to help me, I’m not good at this stuff i would like to put music behind my site but I don’t know how. would you be able to write to me adn tell me how to do it. I really appreciate it thanx for your time.

  • so made the whole thing? WOW!!!!!. impressive. l8er

  • Nice format on the metros. Have you considered phone posts. That is my favorite feature from my friends on livejournal, but I am a xangan. Any chance of that in the future?

  • nice

  • Great idea!

  • This sounds like a really good idea. Way to go Xanga gods.

    ~*elfqueen*~

  • nice touch

  • please add Malaysia in! :) thanks

  • It’d be nice to have two metros, just cause there are so many college students on here. We gotta rep our college towns and hometowns :)

  • u’ve done a good job!!!

  • WTG! Ive signed up for it here in my area!

  • Awesome, I like Metros!

  • nice idea

  • There is no link to join the macau metro :(

  • hey!!! there isnt any Guam in this browser…this is not fair. i cant find anyone from Guam. Could you please add Guam to the list?

  • best thing on xanga since i joined 4 years ago.. seems much more effective than the city blogrings!

  • Hello John, my xanga doesn’t show me my recent comments, but this only happens on my own pc, what’s the deal?

  • OMG~~That sounds soooo cool.!.!.!

    Good Work…JustinE

  • awesome. I’m excited to see if this is going to make it easier to meet people in my area. Hooray!

  • heyy! i made a metro…Bergen Countyyy (NJ)(to include my town cause its too small, and i want all my school friends in it too….already told them bout it :D )…but it doesnt show up on the list…i know others asked this too…and i hate to nag…but how do i get to it/have others join it?

    Katie

  • Love the idea for metros!  Thank you for having this feature on Xanga.  Suggestion though would be to have non-metro areas… There are places in Pennsylvania that aren’t metros/cities but moreso rural/towns:  example would be Milford, Pennsylvania.  It would be a good feature to add rural/suburban areas and also age group feature for those areas.  I found noone in my age group but teenagers.  I am in my late 20′s and saw noone in my metro that is in my age group.  Those 2 extra features would be great as well but this metro feature that you guys created is a great idea.  Thanks again.  :)

  • GDGDGD

  • Tank j00 xD

  • I have a problem with my xanga.

    Sometimes when I want to edit, my entry splits completely in half.
    Like this:

    I wrote about the 3 guys who got arrested for smoking pot illegally, the 361752641 hot floppy haired guys that were in D.C. and I wrote about how much fun I had

    and then on the bottom of my xtools weblog page it continues:

    roller skating at a roller rink that was completely empty.

    UGH!

    AND IT’S ALL GONE!

    Butthole!

    Jen

    ” /> 

    and if I hit cancel the only part that shows on my xanga is the first half and I lose the second half.

    The only thing I can do is copy what’s on the bottom of my page and paste it where my entry is.

    And If I forget to do that, I lose the second half of the entry.

    I don’t know if you can help me but If you can, I’d appreciate it. 

    ~Jen

  • Out of morbid curiousity, do you ever get tired of all the fucking idiots your website attracts? =)

  • u need a Malta Metro !!!!
    but thanks anyways.

  • i created a metro, but it doesn’t show up as one of the options to join.  Can you create a link on my site for it?  Thanks.

  • Hurray for Metros!

  • my look and feel link will not take me there. it keeps making me sign in again and again and again? what am i supposed to do?

  • Hey yall does  does anybody like Spongebob

  • Is anyone there?

  • COOOL BEANS! i’ma gonna join!

    x’s o’s,

    LA LA LA Lindsey

  • hey whats up man. this is awesome dude.. but i got a question…i suggested a metro and created it but it’s not showing up…let me know whats up dude.. thanks alot. OneFierceBeerCoaster

  • Wewt. :D

  • Great idea.  This is great, since I have been meeting so many people from Xanga … it helps to locate some local ones now!

    Thanks for all the hard work you guys put into this.

  • The Metro thing sucks. I don’t live near any metropolitan areas. Thanks a whole lot…

  • i want in on this

  • HEY COOL PAGE LOL C YA

  • Can you put a metro into my account?

  • fantastic

  • well…. some blogrings already are like metros… could there b a way to convert blogrings into metros?

  • i like john

  • sweet idea

  • ok… i suggested a new metro, kansas city (how did u manage to miss that one??  no, im just kidding…), thinking i would be the first one to join it, but there was already 18 other people in it.  i didnt just automatically subscribe them to the new metro did i?

  • Xanga Metros kinda blows. I know you want it to be like a new thing. But I like to be creative when I write where I live and stuff and now I cant. Make it a blogring or something. or dont make it like a must thing to have when you wanna change where you live and stuff…
    Thank you
    Sami

  • You guys rock!! I love the new feature!!

  • Hey I dont see TULARE CALIFORNIA in the metros….plzz put it!!!!! thanx L8R

  • o.. nice page! lol.. u help run xanga?.. i noe alota johns in vancity…

  • some ppl need lives…ur one of them

  • hey john- why can’t we have “xanga” in our username anymore? =(

  • Man, You Would Figure The Guy Who Co-Own’s Xanga Would Have A Better Page Than Me.

  • HEy, for two days almost the Harrisonburg Virginia metro has been in place. We currently have more xangans then Williamsburg and are still not on the list. How can we grow more if we aren’t listed.
    Ben

  • What’s so bad about my zip code floating around. It’s just a zip code; I don’t think anyone could get anything out of that. It’s much more accurate anyway. There are probably thousands of xanga users in one metro area.

  • is it gonna be free and will other people no ur using it

  • this is off topic, but someone is threatening my xanga! whatever i said that i like they said it’s all stupid & they made up a nasty site of their own bout me & left me really bad comments. they named it w/my 1st name & put _eats_poop after it but i think they deleted it. HELP!! some one hates me out there for no reason

  • what about london kentucky and corbin and all the other cities and counties in kentucky.

    robertej

  • This is a really great idea, but what about those of us who divide our time between two or more locations, for instance, I go to college in NYC, but I live on Long Island in New York?  The current system doesn’t allow us to join more than one metro, but I think that we should be able to join more than one metro, like we can join more than one blogring!

  • very nice feature

  • its neat, but the closest city listed to me is atlanta, where there are nearly 800 to browse already, so its fairly useless

  • What about us Australians??

    Do we have metro areas too? huh?

    Great idea, hope I can make use of the new feature!

  • very nice johney boy

  • Interesting concept …

  • yueah I think this is cool and some one mentiond sub groups, I am older and I would like to read entries from people my age… Thanks <3 you guys

  • awesome idea by the why r u like the head guy or sumthin
    ive only been a xangan 4 a day

    -turdquacker

  •  

  • I think that there should be a Chadds Ford or West Chester Metro for Pennsylvania

  • That’s very stupendous! Now I can see who, in Xanga, blogs nearby my area! Thanks John, Marc and Monsur!

  • Boyz r players . Dats a fact…

    Dont fall in luv…

    just play them back…

  • It’s great~~

    Man..this’s cool~~

  • who are you anyways??

  • Hey yeah Cynthia from canada has a great point there. Mpls area is swarming with under 20 year olds. any way to have sub categories for age. THAT WOULD BE AWSOME!

    thanks Sally from Minnesota!!Mpls

  • rock on =)

  • whats a metro? and why are there metros? and how did i get this site? and whydo i ask so many questions? is it 2 bamboozle ppl? i dont understand why are there questions? why dont ppl kno all the answers already?   why are there ppl? why is there life? why do ppl belive in god why do i question him? do i belive in god? do you think so? why? or why not?

  • wat a cool page guy******

  • I Love Xanga Metros is way to good

     

    Best job ever!

     

    Thank you

  • peter stevens gives it two thumbs up…way up!

    this message was brought to you from peter stevens and has recieved a golden seal of approval!

  • that’s cool

  • koo

  • such a great idea! im glad to konw that theres an Indy metro. thanks for taking care of the ”little metros”…

  • When are there going to be multiple levels of protected posts? This is a much more vital feature than metros or 99 profile pics…

  • Hey man, please type to my site: Sigmaverick. And here’s 2 eProps.

  • So how many people have to suggest a metro before you add it?  There isn’t one for Northern Ireland at all!

  •    radical!!   : )  

  • totally rad idea. awesome!

  • good looking out.  dis’ll help a lot.

  • what is this?

    i am so lost.

    someone fill me in.

    ~fullbluditalian

  • That’s cool. I just wanted to say thank you for putting the Philippines under the correct category.. South East Asia.. Some people just don’t know -_-.

    :] Keep up the great work!

  • cool Metro Service~~ this thing is tight~ thank u John~~ ^^

  • i think we should get a chance to join more than one metro. b/c some ppl they are living another place than where they were born[just like me]. or they wanna get to know ppl from another local near by.

  • dont like how you can’t type in your own “State” option on your profile anymore =/

  • now i cant put anything ‘creative’ into my country and state!

    NOOO

  • does anyone know how i can get a skin

  • this is great, but sub groups would also be better, especially by ages and sex

  • I don’t like suddenly being locked into your idea of what a “state” is. That sucks. Put it back the old way.

  • Kool! I will try it. Thanx for da heads up.

  • I dont like it.  I live in another country now but I prefer to join my hometown metro.  So why does my country have to change?

  • nice john!~

  • i think its gay that if u sign up for metro but then leave one you cant choose you state or providence thingy anymore! thats so gay and messed up! metro is a good idea but no thats just messed up.

  • one of many …

  • HEY THIS IS ANOTHER XANGA CUSTOMER I DIDN’T KNOW THAT THERE WAS XANGA METRO!!! THAT IS AWESOME THAT YOU CAN MAKE A XANGA CLUB! P.S. HOW IN THE WORLD DID YOU GET HAT IDEA TO START A CLUB??? ALSO YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT MY WEB SITE THE NAME OF IT IS FALLENANGELBABY!!! HOPE YOU LIKE IT!!!!!

  • Sounds like a great idea, quick question: did you enable the opportunity to list more than one metro i.e. lived in one place now, however spent alot of time elsewhere and would like to list both??? Just curious.

  • http://i.xanga.com/john/0prop.jpg

  • Well done guys, yet another reason to stay with Xanga!

  • yeah…great feature!!!

  • ha ha!! I just wanted to be on that big long list!! << *look left* <<

  • sweet very cool…some beautiful females TOO!!

  • i read the subgroups idea as well, and i thought it would also be interesting to break it down by interest or somesuch.

    i was looking through the metros for seoul, and it seems the only people we have are  people like:
    “wOw~ dIs iz CoOol^^** ah LuBz mAh FfrenzZ aNd mAh HunnIe!”

    and i feared for my mental state and my city.

  • This is really cool! Someone check out my site but its not done yet its still under constrution!LOL!Alexi

  • I hate you!

  • This is so cool! The thing is, they have my old city, and not my new one, so I suggested it. Awsome feature!

  • you are the stupidest person I have ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • kick arse!!

    i love it

  • neet. ^_^

  • effing awesome  guys.. two thumbs up

  • this is a nice idea putting in into like that……….that sounds really kool i hope you think of more great ideas john

  • Dass ist sehr prima! Danke! Hat ein gut tag!

  • Itz great

  • You guys are geniuses! How do you do it?!

  • This is a good idea…keep them rolling!!

  • Awesome feature! I love it.

  • hey thanks for subscribing to me, if you dont mind I’m subscribing to you. bye thanks for inventing this.

    bye chris

  • wait never mind, I thought your long list was subscriptions.

    bye chris

  • everyone says they like it, but i REALLY preferred getting to type in a country and state. that allowed for creative things, which is a must for my xanga, because i always change it and give it a theme. but now i don’t get to use country and state because they’re predetermined by the metro. i really don’t like these metro things. why can’t we join a metro to find people near us, but NOT have that determine what we have in “country and state”?

  • how come i exited the metro thing and now i can’t put in my “state” or ”country” stuff in my public view because now it says “determined by metro”..when i already DISjoined the metro thing.

  • i agree with TheFlyingNun

  • sounds cool!!! lol, just sux for us lil ole towns in the middle of no where

  • HEY JOHN THIS IS FALLENANGELBABY AGAIN UM I HAVEN’T HEARD/GOTTEN ANY REPLIES FROM U AGAIN PLEASE LOOK @ MY SITE & REPLIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • That’ll be a big help ^_^

  • great job man.

  • Yea!

  • this is cool, i like!!!!

  • Awesome idea!! Thanks for adding it up. =)

  • Great feature!!

  • hey there. ummm. i was just wondering if you have a feature where you can report like a user which steals what you have on your site without any permission? `cos that`s just so rude.

  • very nice feature, surely. a great addition to the xanga community.

  • a little stalker-ish, don’t you think?

  • hi!!! a very good idea! easy way!

  • hey, i’ve benn getting a lot of rude comments relating to what i wrote in my weblgo entries. i tried to tell them many many times to stop the rude commenting, but they just dont seem to stop. can you investigate this? i’ve been trying not to flip out over this, but it gets worse and worse every time. the comments are on the november 13, 2004 post. thank you for your appreciation.

  • THe metro feature os so awsome! Do you think that someday there will be a way to go through our metros and selecting only to see xangans of the sex  of our choice? ~Oz

  • cool john

  • fabbbbbb

  • Nagoya (still one hour south of me…) is Japan’s fourth largest city…it doesn’t qualify for a metro?

    I’ve tried to add it, but to no avail.

    I also tried to add Gifu, but that got me nowhere and well, I understand…I don’t know many who are as attached to it as I am….

    Oh, and the sub-groups sound so lovely.

  • awesome idea. Very organized check out my xanga….

  • wat……

  • yeah

  • hi i have a question…

    my friend had told me that a metro requires at least 30 members to be in the top ten…my metro..the east brunswick one in NJ has over 40 and how come we’re not in the top ten?  fort lee has 33 and we have 46 and they’re on it anf we’re not..why?

    please reply

  • who is this?

  • hey watup..nice..

  • definitely something to try sometime i will check it out

  • I suggested a new Metro for Colorado but I don’t see it in the list some days later??!?

  • Totally great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Sounds great!

  • What does it mean if the below text comes up after logging in??  Does it mean my Xanga is dead?  What can I do?

  • where is Guam??? pelase help

  • Ya’ll should add “Carrollton, TX” in there, and “Stephenville, TX”…just a thought. :)

  • BUMMER is i can’t use state and country w/o having metros – can that be changed?

  • hey great idea for the metros!!

  • there’s something wrong with my site. i went to devilicious’s xanga and now whenever i visit a site, a giant pic from devilicous’s xanga pops up. do you know what’s wrong? how do u fix it???

  • cool idea! just want to echo some of the other comments here:

    a) I’d love to join more than one metro (i.e. home, and where I go to Uni);

    b) why do ‘suggested’ metros not show up under the ‘browse metros’ option?

    c) without wanting to sound all snobby post-teen elitist, sorting by age group would be appealing…

  • theres not whippany nj… wtf?

  • found my metro here in germany…. too bad for me that i could be mom to most of the folks on here. damn i’m feelin’ old now.

    great feature though!

  • i think something has to be done about this xtracker code. it tracks down every username it goes onto even tho your signed off. very irritating when you just want to explore only to find people asking “WHO ARE YOU? GET AWAY FROM ME.”

  • Please add Pakistan to the Xanga Metros Pretty please….?????
    THANKS JOHN!!

  • Whoops, you did add it! haha THANKS AGAIN, this metro stuff is cool!!

  • Suggestion: For Hawaii, theres only Honolulu. Not everyone lives in honolulu though it is a large area. You should break it down by island. The islands I suggest would be Oahu, Maui, and Big Island.

  • Nice feature…best idea yet.

    For new york metro is it possible to add metros for each of the five boroughs?

  • Dear John

    I’m assuming that you are the head person of Xanga and therefore the best person to discuss this way. This is highly unorthodox, but if someone was concerned about another Xanga members physical or medical safety is there anyway there contact details could be founc out and medical help sent to them. I don’t want the details myself, I’m just asking that if it’s at all possible could you or someone else at Xanga command arrange to have medical help or at least a doctor or someone sent out to someone. Iselin (Ibiza Experience) is part of the Eating Disorder community of Xanga, she is a long term Anorexic at a dangerously low weight and her last 2 posts are alarming showing a deterioration in her condition. I strongly believe she is in imminent life threatening danger if she does not receive medical care as soon as possible. Several girls have passed away from their respective Eatig Disorders in the last year and I hold grave fears for Iselin’s survival. If there is anyway at all that some sort of help could be sent to her a lot of people (myself included obviously) would be extremely relieved and grateful.

    Kind Regards

    Claire

  • okie thx…um.. can u help me? i have a problem about my subscripation digest becuz i havent not recevice my emails for a long time….how come? can u help me and tell me wat to do? i checked on xanga faqs..and it doesnt work. plz..someone help me!!! i cant never get my friends updates on my email!!! plz…can u help me?

  • coolie… i’m gonna tell all my friendz wit xangaz 2 join metros

  • i’m only writing on this so my s/n will be out there

  • Hey, what about a way to sort people by age. I think it’d be great if we had a way to sort bloggers by age. I mean looking for people to talk to in your area really sucks when you have to sort through all of the 12 year olds to find the people your age. We need Age Filters like we have the Metros.

    Couldn’t find anywhere else to make suggestions, so I thought I’d post here.

  • Um I know this is off topic but……………….How cum I cant put backgrounds on my xanga site??? All I see is a plain white background……..Plz help me @_@

  • I live in a small town thanks!

  • awesome sounds really great but how do we find these people that live near us.

  • Cool…yepp

  • Wonderful Idea.

  • Very nice addition. I’ve been preaching it like no other.

  • nice………..props…………good job…..deserves standing ovation 

  • Hey, I like the fact that your doing the metro thing or w/e it called. Cause like then you know whats going all around in the where ever you live. I think thats really PIMP!

  • wow awesome

  • Awesome! Kepe up the good work!

  • hi can you please Help me. 
    i created a second name, and ended up shutting down the name in the same night.  however now whenever i click my name to link back to the area in my site where i can update and see old private logs and such, it brings me to the blanc page of the second site i created.  for example…everytime i click the link to bring me back to bogle_dem it instead brings me to the other name.  also, on my public site, you can now see that other name instead of my name (bogle_dem).  How did this happen?!? and can someone please help me fix it.  i dont understand why the two accounts linked somehow..and now all it does is navigate me to the other site…PLEASE HELP ME!  also i tried doing the contact us but it didnt seem like there was anyone i could contact.
    thanks

  • does anyone in her like louis vuitton?>

  • hey im having trouble. i dont know where to get xanga skins. PLEASE HELP

  • nice feature… but what happened to the email subscriptions… i did not turn them off… i did not change my email address… and i am not blocking them either… did xanga suspend this feature which is the last option to maybe why… please bring them back this is really frustrating… but other than that, thanks for bringing the metro option to xanga… just now fix the subscription emails…

  • fabuloso!

  • Comment: 1. Hong Kong is under China as a city. It shouldn’t be treated the way as an independent country.

    2. Well, there are too MANY people in Hong Kong that just putting Hong Kong as a whole with NO subdistricts doesn’t work. (You may also imagine that if you’re in new york you should’ve manhattan, china town, etc)

  • Vorrt

  • I don’t know where to make suggestions, so I’ll leave mine here.

    Could you all start working on something where users can delete comments they have left on other people’s page? Sometimes, I’ve said repetitive comments or double-posted and I wish I could have gotten rid of it.

    Thanx!

  • how do you paste pictures??

  • this was great!!!!!

  • ok i have a problem, can someone from xanga please help me before things get worse. babygurlyizinluv is my site

  • come to my site.. you can request any code or layout! it`s great!

  • Hey.  On a different note, I have an idea.  I have been using xanga for a while, and I think someday I would like to export all my entries easily onto my computer, instead of copying and pasting.

    Is there any way you can implement a function that exports all your entries into a document file?  That would be wonderful.

  • can we have more fonts to choose from on the look & feel page!! plzzzzzzzz

  • That is great now i can see if any of my friend live in the same area, Thank you very much!!!

  • My site isn’t listed. xanga.com/musick_4_u, well I have a question for john or if any readers know how to do it. I have a music site (as said above) and I want to put an e-mail form right on the site so readers can instantly request a song. is this possible?

  • do it 4 da futre

  • thanks!  it’s awesome.  you know what else would be cool?  if we could search for xangans by their email addresses. 

  • woot! cool new feature!

  • good luck

  • Is there any way to filter a xanga metro by age? Can you add this feature?

  • wow ur very popular!

  • every1 cum 2 mi site!!!

  • i have a question, someone hacked into my site that i pay premium for, how do i cancel the page?????

  • hai!

  • Hi John, I have xangad now for a few months and enjoy it. I have a question that I did not find it your FAQ’s anywhere, nor do I find a “Contact Us” opportunity to send questions unless I fell under one of the categories, ie advertiser, journalist, etc. So I am sending this one to you here for lack of a better place because I need to find out something about postings. My teenage daughter also has a xanga site and I have looked at it from time to time. I know this is an invasion of her privacy, and if it were a hard copy journal in her room I would not. Anyway, can she tell who reads her xanga or is that only when the person leaves a comment or is part of her subscription~ which I never have? So can one know who is reading your xanga if they leave no comment? She doesn’t know that I have a xanga also so my guess is she doesn’t know that I can access it. My profile is marked “hidden” so does that prevent her from knowing if there is in fact a trail of pple that read your entries. I appreciate your response. Thank you kindly.

  • do u have to pay? cuz that would suck

  • Dude bring back add_ons and A_music_x

    PLEASE

  • I like the metro idea, but I have a kinda unrelated question. I was just curious about your policy on racially insensitive user names. For example, I feel very uneasy when I see blogs called “Chinksbowdown” and the like; they make me uncomfortable.

  • Just in case you did not know, the word Xanga is a variation on the word Shang.

    Shang (S©¡©¯): 1) A unit of land measurement in China, equivalent to approximately 15 mu in most areas of the northeast, and 3 or 5 mu in the northwest (1 mu = 0.0667 hectares).” 2) The name of a dynasty which ruled China during part of the second millennium B.C., probably from the 16th to the 11th century B.C. Also attrib. or as adj. Also called Shang-Yin [f. the place-name Yin in Honan Province, the dynasty's final capital].

    shangan: A stick cleft at one end for putting on a dog’s tail

    shangaan: (A member of) a Bantu people inhabiting Zimbabwe, Mozambique, and South Africa; the language of the south-east Bantu group spoken by this people. Also attrib. or as adj.

  • Great idea.

    Hey any chance you might start making some sort of division between the over 18 type of xanga’s and the others?

    Seems like there is a lot of chance that those 13 year old kids will wander across some inappropriate blogs.

    Just a suggestion.

  • How do you get music on your site?? Like when someone visits your site music starts playing…

  • WHO ARE YOU!?!

  • how do i put pictures on my xanga site????????

  • does anyone know

  • i want know more detailss…but it sounds great………..

  • Cool beans.

  • wooo… cool feature :D maybe i’ll have some ppl from Tampa looking at my xanga :D lols

  • hey dawg. you are so darn cool. “Im jonO”. wow we are so annoying about that. haha. it’s ok. lots of fun. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. well your cool. bye.

  • The Sub-groups idea sounds great! One thing I found is that when I went to find my metro (Auckland, New Zealand) it wasn’t listed under New Zealand, but then when I searched/suugested Auckland, one Metro came up, is it just my computer that didn’t allow it to come up under New Zealand or is that a known problem?

  • i think thats a great idea

  • It’s  GREAT idea… one question/suggestion. I live dead center between two of the “Metro” areas (Salem and Portland, Oregon) I can only join one… it would be great if I could join both, but as of right now I can only choose one!

  • thanks for making pittsburgh!

  • how do you unsubscribe from the metros i don’t wanna be on it anymore

  • …Monsur is from Dhaka? That’s awesome, my family’s all Bangladeshi and my folks went to college in Dhaka.

    Anyhow, this is a real interesting addition. The only slight down side is being able to join just one metro. I understand, it’d be annoying having folks joining twenty or so metros they just like; but I had to choose between Washington, DC, (where I go to school) and Nashville, TN (where I was born and raised).

With National Treasure out any one know of the minute men the sons of Masons now DeMolay anyway these minute’s would hold horse for the pony express that ben set up. and on night knowing that brit might come Paul had to come up with a word.One of the lad choose the word Paint but witout the P so if caught he could say it ain’t me the brit would think him stupid. and the message “It might be correct. But it Ain’t right” Paul revere.

  • i love this…now I can find girls around me…hopefully…lol RAINBOW PRIDE…

  •  im bored and have nothn to do! most u ppl have pretty kool xangas!

                        ashley

  • good idea but I don’t think its enough

  • what up foos

  • I have to try it soon

  • Can u tell me how to change my comments and eprops to saying something different then just comments and eprops? because i`d really appreciate it. thanks.

  • could you tell em how to change my comments and eprops buttons to saying something other than just comments and eprops? i’d really appreciate it…thanks!

  • Nifty cool man..nifty cool…

  • :)

  • I have a question.. how do you get the chatter box on the side of your site?

  • allright…sounds like fun…now maybe ill find a man…lol…yay!

  • anyone that knows why this is happening….i could sure use the help:
    when i type i see the background i chose but when i go to public preveiw you see a different background but none of the stuff i post or any links just post your suggestions here thanks

  • i dont like it. only because i liked it when my city was my room because that’s where i basically live. my room. if you could, please add something to where you could choose between choosing your own city and state to a metro

  • I WANT YOUR SEX.

  • I liked my state being Comfortably Numb

  • Hi. Everyone seems to be writing like… 3 words. I have decided to use the proper way to compliment and thank someone. Here goes - I thank you and compliment you for this information. There, that was nine words. Now this comment looks longer and more people will read it. Woohoo yay 4 me.

  • props to you for Xanga metros!!!! i’m enjoying it already :)

  • I am new to Xanga land, and I am grateful to have an avenue to share…Your features are a Gift to many….Gracious Thanks for all that your team does! Spirit Blessings…

  • Hey thanks for the explanation… It’s a great feature…

  • Question, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask but I am anyways. I have about 58 subscribers but now my little list that lists them all says I don’t have any. So I checked on some of the people that should be on the list and they’re still subscribed to me, what’s going on?

  • Thats a great idea, Having more sorting options would be nice. Of course this would require more user input, but you could sort it by school, common interests, and such.

    Once again, great idea

  • i like it.

  • yay! good good

  • you need to find a better way to do this….

    no offense…but it seems rather unfair

    a large portion of people live in little towns they refer to as ‘the middle of no where’ we need something to!

    but thanks for all the effort and everything

  • *sigh of relief*  at first I thought we hand to enter our zip codes!

  • Yay.

  • cool!!  thanks john

  • metros! – nothing but kids as young as 10 there. I’ll stay with my own searches fir now.

  • Nice

  • hi mi nombre is john canon

  • i luv the idea. now i can talk to ppl who live near me and they actually know what i’m talkin about

  • HI HI! ^_^ *huggies*

  • its cool the metro i’m the kansas city part 

  • That’s a great idea.

  • dude, can you have a feature that shows by search of zip code, who lives close to you?

  • nice… but my metro does not exist on the list of metros… is that supposed to happen? LoL

  • Lovely. :)

  • thats cool !

  • yea i like the idea, scinei am an american liveing in a forien country, it would be great to meet people who speak english.  But there ia a problem!  most of the poeple in my merto dont even live near there!

  • John, I’m not sure where else to post this, so I’ll give it a shot here.

    I recently created a metro for an area of my state that is really a few cities in a region of the state. It is not showing up allowing people to browse to it to join though. The only other person to join linked to it from my page. The metro is probably losing members to a larger metro region about 50 miles away. Can my suggested metro show up in the browse list? The Metro to which I am referring is USA – Michigan – “Muskegon Grand Haven Holland.” It may be able to be split into two or three (maybe Muskegon and Holland, as Grand Haven is in between the two, and quite small.)

  • thanks!!..this is cool!!..i’m in the san diego,CA metro..woo hoo

  • that is such a good idea!!!!!

  • so what’s the main difference between this n blogrings?

  • hi………..

  • good job on the metro, although i couldnt care either way.

    anyway, i have a suggestion. why not put a place so that us xangans can offer suggestions to you guys? i mean, we all have ideas on how to make xanga better. and writing it here means i have to hope you actually read this out of 2 billion other comments.

    that’s one.

    two. you have a way to randomly pop us into another xanga site right? but why not add links to limit it so i can randomly go to a site in a blogring, or a metro, or something? random is just too random.

    btw. im gonna keep on posting this on sites until i get an answer, cuz i wanna help make xanga better, and if you didnt reply, you didnt see this.

    thx. and pls reply.

  • DTHgh

  • hey guy…

  • i love this feature …can u put in the list of metros 4 florence,alabama cuz i am tired of explaining to friends how to go into an unlisted metro

  • Hey, um, I just wanted to check that the 30$ that was transfered from my bank account to Xanga.com has been divided up for both my sites, which is LoveMe_HateMe and Sensual_Siren. Those are the only two I had wanted to pay for. If I remember correctly, six months of premium costs $15 dollars for each site. So, that would mean six months of premium for LoveMe_HateMe and six months worth of premium for Sensual_Siren. Please, try and let me know that the $30 went toward the right Xanga Sites. I’d love to hear if everything went smoothly or not.

  • Alright this seems like a cool idea. But I’m using a country I’m not actually from to make myself harder to stalk I guess. Also I can’t write in my state now. I like putting in my state of mind or my state of health or my emotional state. Or the state of my room. I don’t want to put exactly where I live. I liked how it could be creative before. Can’t it be both? Can’t it be creative and still have a write in? Can we have a option to choose a metro and have that list our country and state? And an option to be creative? That way I can have what I want and people who don’t mind that people will know where they live can have what they want. Since you’ve done both how hard can it be to stick the two together.

  • I hate my job… help me get fired…
    (read my post for details)

  • I have 41 comments in less than 24 hours, and you guys don’t give me featured content.  It is age discrimination because I am a married, middle-aged stay-at-home mom.  LOL!  But I really do have all those comments since yesterday at 2:00 in the afternoon.

  • I TAKE IT BACK!  I TAKE IT BACK!  I JUST SAW MY SITE ON FEATURED CONTENT!  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  • I think the UK cities need a bit more thought.  As a Liverpudlian, I’m rather disinclines to list myelf under any other city.  And I don’t know what the Welsh will do when they see none of their fine metros present.  Unfortunately there aren’t too many Europeans on xanga to begin with.  Have you considered expanding your international presence?

  • thats sooo fucking stupid im sorry, but this is like one of the few sites where you can express youreself the way you want. i mean if its that youre scared that like kids or something is gonna see it then dont worry theyre not gonna find the pages even though the already know everything. please just let all us xanganians express ourselfs beacuse i think its stupi if people dont like it they dont have to look!!! thank you ~Tintin~

  • JOHN I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT MY STINKIN PREMIUM. I GO TO LOOK AND FEEL AND UPDATE IT AND IT DOESNT WORK AND WHEN I SIGN IN IT GOES TO THE SCREEN THAT USED TO BE THERE BEFORE I WENT TO PREMIUM…EMAIL ME AT LAWGUY04_1984@YAHOO.COM WITH YOUR HELP. MY SITE IS http://WWW.XANGA.COM/LAWGUY04_1984

  • I have a question… I dont wanna be in a Metro but it wont let me show what state i’m from because I wont join a Metro, so is there a way to show what state i’m from without joining one? Please leave me a comment back or somethin.

  • is there a member of xanga here in philippines aside from me????

  • hi, sry to bother u, i hope u get a chance to read this… someone is discriminating (kinda) on xanga and i would like to plea for the mediators of xanga to delete his account.. i have many others who would make the same plea too… wut can i do?

  • YAY! NEW FEATURE! (just on case ur wondering, im reallly hyper right now…) -^^-

  • john, please read my xanga entry from 12/11/04 and tell me what you think.

  • DOPE

    DOOPE

    DOPE

    DOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPE

    stuffffff maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

    this is hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooot

  • make a place where you can enter your school name
    please
    that’d be really cool

  • hello..i just wanted to say..i love this site! its so wonderful…im a xangahead that to cheap to pay for ur membership, so that’s thanks for ur free services. hahaha :) joking. take care now. bye

  • is there a way to prevent pornagraphic pics from getting posted…cause there are people posting them and i though this was a clean site…its on the metros under wisconsin, greenbay…

  • That’s kind of a cool idea. I wouldn’t use it though ’cause I don’t want the world to know what city I live in (makes it much easier for the weirdos out there to track you down). It’s too bad that you can’t search for fellow Xangans by interest, or simply by province or country or whatever instead of having to identify the city you live in. Still, cool idea.

  • Life it hard sometimes, but there is nothing to change it.

  • hey hey well if u want i can suggest sumthin i mean if u want to b more specific on the cities i live in massachusetts n i no sum ppl live in quincy or north quincy tat also hav an xaga sites so u can put tat in there

  • hi john…..i’m not sure if u’ll have time to read this or not but this is very improtant……i’d like to tell you that the user ZLC_rider……he made alot of xangas that particularly insult a girl name crystal…ZLC_rider this user made the folowing sites
    crystal_lee_is_uglee
    crystal_should_die
    eric_hearts_crystal

    i think you should go see and read these sites yourself…….i find it very insulting and i really feel bad for this girl who is getting insulted…..so please read….because i think you wouldn’t want people to use xanga as just a site to insult people they hate…that is very rude…i hope u’ll agree with me n banned the folowing sites….
    crystal_lee_is_uglee
    crystal_should_die
    eric_hearts_crystal( this site is not created by a guy named eric because i don’t think he would insult himself…..and in fact this person don’t really kno english….)
    and plaese banned ZLC_rider……he swears alot…..and very discusting…….i would really apriciate it if you would put a stop to these insults…..
    thankyou for your attention…..

  • Looks Like your the head honcho around here. Join my Empire, and we can do great things together.

  • Hi … I am really impresed that there are many pro-ana things in Xanga. I’m in some just because I’m in recovery but some of this girls are totally killing themselves and helping other to harm themselves more.

  • awsome

  • wow this xanga is hella tight. it’s got it all and that. it deserves 2 eProps.

                  much luv leah

  • Sweet

  • i dont like the metros. u cant put weird states or countries.

  • metrosexuals have been on xanga for quite some time now… haha

  • In the Virginia metros Prince Williams County should not have an s. It should read Prince William County. tankies :D

  • My Internet filter blocked featured content, more bad language on there

  • this is tight thx for the metros!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • DUDE. what is up with the new xanga ads? what happened to just promoting FAQ and the related books? the world’s cominng to an end. what next, popups?

  • lol hi

  • Very Exciting!!!! :)

  • when the metro’s list is updated with the Most recently updated xangas…

    does that use the time for that area? or for that xanga? maybe the timezones for the memebers of a metro should be automatically adjusted?

    or am i just blind again?

  • thank u very much for ur concern, though i don’t think i’ll use it, but oh well!!!

  • okay this is serious. i’m really sorry to bother yu but two of my close friends xangas have been shut down by somebody. and nobody knwos their passworrd. the xangas were http://www.xanga.com/alison_x3 and also http://www.xanga.com/ducki_flimsy4lyfe please try to do as much as yu can to find out who did this. please

    also, please notify me if their is another way of shutting down a xanga that is not yours. . on xanga.com. .

    thanks so much

  • is your name johnathan v.

  • hi, sorry to bother you and i don’t even know if you’re the person i go to about this but i haven’t been getting my subscription digests for quite a while… i have two xangas, and for a while i was only getting my subscriptions from one of them, and now i’m not getting any. what’s going on?? :(

  • I love this feature, i’ve met like 50 people from my area.

  • hi, are you the head of xanga.com? If you are then please help me. I told my friend about my website, and she somehow knew my password and got on, and now she has control of the website. I didn’t even tell her my password. We USED to be best friends. I try to log on to that account, but she changed the password and now I can’t get on. Please send me a comment or something to try and tell me what to do. Thanks, Jocelyn.

  • can you please help me.. i made an experimental video entry.. and none of the “comments” “eprops” or “edit” buttons are under it, so i can’t delete it. its a private entry and i cant edit any entries that i posted prior to it. PLEASE HELPPP!!! its screwing everything up!

  • are you in charge of xanga?!? becuase some one shut down my site and im hoping it was some error of yours. i never shut down my site… ive been working hard on it for almost 7 months!! http://www.xanga.com/patiiperez .. yeah im extremely mad.. it has all my suscribers and all my suscriptions on it.. it has important things i work.. whats wrong with this?!?!

  • It would be super helpful if there was a way to filter out age-ranges. I have a very hard time finding other people my age in which I can relate to – not because they dont exist – but because this place is flooded with 12-17 year olds.

  • This new feature is awesome…but I have a question….how can I get into the premium spotlight? I really would like to meet some new people here on xanga but I don’t get many visits to my page….can you let me know what I should do to get into the spotlight…or what I should do to attract xangians to my page?

  • i want to reactivate my xanga, but i forgot my password. can you help me?

  • Marc/John,

    I’m still waiting for someone to enforce your terms of use which were violated by two users in early December.  I have repeatedly forwarded information to your “abuse” address without ANY response.  It is my belief that you DO NOT enforce your terms of use and that you make little or no effort to protect the members of your “xangamunity”.  I”m seriously considering contacting the Attorney General of the state of New York to discuss your website!

  • John like the feature but can we arrange them by age?  many under 21 bloggers.  But some of us old folks wouldlike to find folks are on age to discuss politics, emotions finances, news, etc.  Think you could help????

  • hehehe…its Abu Dhabi not Abu Zabi…lol…but hey! i’m lovin’ it, thanks alot!! *hugs*hugs*hugs*hugs*

  • CHECK MINES OUT!

  • i just noticed that the Chicago metro has more than 22,000 memebers (the largest metro i know of).  i’d think it’d be nice if it were to split up into one for the city and one for the suburbs.  or something like xanga suburbs. 

  • hey i got this xanga in my comment box

    xanga.com/home.asp?user=chicky

    i think you should banned them :? thank you. !!

    ~Yusagie ^^

  • i need help….how do u create backgrounds….like on Blogring.net and crazy_layouts n stuff, ok..bye bye*

  • YOU ARE A COOL MAN

  • ya….metros are pimp…thanks…

  • Hey, I still don’t see the Metros link on the top page of Xanga… Probably when the message of the Metros on the top page fades away (as time passes with more news), the newcomers won’t know about the Metros feature.

  • Brilliant idea! DO IT! Kali

  • Hi, I didn’t know how else to contact Xanga, so I though I’d just leave a comment and someone would eventually read it. Obviously, your one of the Xanga dudes, and I have a suggestion to make. I was doing a search for a blogring and it was an amazing pain in the butt clicking through them all, so my suggestion was to add an alphabetical index to them. Like you see on site like Google where there’s a lot of links but they have the ABC’s at the top so you can do a quick jump instead of clicking next a million times. I would suggest this for you search results for blogrings, username and the like. While I’m on a role I would also suggest a suggestion box, because I couldn’t find a very efficient way to contact the people in charge of Xanga. Additionally I would suggest something like a Xanga directory or white pages in addition to your other method of connecting with other users. Just a though.

    Thanks!
    Randi

  • hello, i have a complaint about a certain member, he is being very rude to everyone, and he is very annoying, i would be happy if you all did soomething like shut down his xanga, or atleast look at it. he has been leaving multiple people insulting comments, i have recievded some, and my friends have recieved some also. here is his xanga, http://www.xanga.com/Carl_Potter please look at his xanga and do something about it, because he is getting very annoying and being a jerk.

    signed, a long time member.

  • looser

  • Hey is anyone else getting this

    xanga decayed when ever they go to their subscribers list?

  • to fix the “decayed” thing:
    first, log yourself out. then, sign in again, and above the “remember me” check box, theres a box that you can click with “safe mode” click that, and then the page will load all html. after you do that, you press “ctrl+f” and type in “decay”. delete all the posts that have that html (there might be alot, be patient. i think theres a couple of warped posts for every time you try to look at your page) delete all those, and then it’ll be back to normal.

    but after you do this, dont visit anybody else’s xanga that is also messed up(i dont know how you can tell, but yeah… if you do, yours will mess up again)

    this worked for me, i hope it works for the rest of you

  • ^^ohh yeah, that only works if your entire site is hacked, not just the subscriptions part. sorry!

  • there is a virus on xanga please fix it thanks =)

  • THERE IS A VIRUS TRAVELLING AROUND THAT IS KILLING XANGAS LEFT AND RIGHT
    YOU VISIT SOMEONE SITE AND THE VIRUS GETS INTO YOURS AND KILLS IT

    PLEASE HELP MY SITE AND HELP STOP THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!

  • dude! I love your profile pic. Exploding Dog Rocks! It’s some of my favorite art!

  • yeah bro its awesome but its hard to find someone closer than where your metro especially if you dont live near any of the given metros or if you do its still a good distance….. maybe make it towards you can search by town or sumtin sorta like the engine used by aim or Myspace……… and thanks for keepin this thing going bro!

  • cool sounds really cool.

  • yes. cool. Great brain storm session.

  • Ok..1 eProp for the idea.

  • what if I wanted to join more than one metro, how do I do that

  • Ok, so I doubt this is where I’m supposed to ask questions or w/e but I’m confused, my trial of premium is up, but I still have premium, and I didn’t wanna keep it after my trial was over, and I didn’t sign up for it, so why is it still there?!?!? Thanx

    Here’s the exact copy of a chain letter I recieved. I am passing it on to you know.

    *************************************************************

    1. To yourself, say the name of the only
    guy or girl you wanna be with 3
    times!

    *************************************************************

    2. Think of something you wanna accomplish
    within the next week and say it to your self 6
    times!!

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    >>

    3. If you had 1 wish what would it be? say it to
    yourself 9 times!!!

    ———————————————————————–

    4. Think of something that you want to happen
    between you and that 1special person and say
    it to your self 12 times!!!

    ——————————————————————–

    5. Now, heres the hard part! Pick only 1 of these wishes and as
    you scroll down focus and
    concentrate on it and think on nothing
    else but that wish.

    * *
    * *
    * *
    * *
    * *

    Now make one last &final wish about that one wish that you picked.

    After reading this, you have 1 hour to send it out to 15 people, and what
    you wished for will come true within in one week!

    u only get one chance!!!!! Now scroll down and think of your
    crush!!!

    Keep going down

    Keep going

    Keep going

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Did you think of your crush? I hope so, that was
    your last chance. Now pay very close attention this important message!
    Sorry but once read, must be sent. Yes, this is one of those kinda chain
    letters that everyone hates. This one has been going since 1863 and if you
    break this chain, you will pay!!!!!! Remember that after hearing these
    stories.

    First Example:
    Take Barbra Wallace.. She was a pretty lucky girl,
    up till she got this same chain letter. She had a crush on the same kid
    since kindergarden. when she got this mail she didn’t pay any attention to
    it. She just thought, no big deal. And deleted it. The next day her dad
    got fired and her mom dies in a car crash. If she would have sent the
    letter none of that would have happened and her mom would be alive.

    Second Example:
    Try Freddie D. Now Freddie D. was your average
    nerd. Had glasses, was short and chubby, was in gifted. All the signs of
    your total dork. He also received this letter and sent it to 51 people in
    the hour. Now, like Barbra, he had a crush on a girl since 3rd grade. The
    next day after sending the chain the girl confessed her love for him ever
    since 3rd grade. Freddie D. finally had the courage to ask her out, and of
    course, she had been waiting to yes to that for years. They grew up and
    married each other to live happily forever.

    Third Example:
    Now if you couldn’t relate to the others, this’ll
    get ya hooked. Listen to this. A kid named Jordan Johnson was just
    getting on AOL to check his mail. He was a quiet kid, not that popular but
    not a geek either. he was just normal. He saw he had mail from his
    friend. It was this exact letter. Now Jordan Johnsen was a smart kid and
    he knew what could happen if he didnt pass it on. He simply pulled a few
    friends from his buddy list and sent it along. The next day, about that
    same time, he got a phone call. It said he had won the lottery! then his
    dad came home and bought him a new bike! His mom bought him Nintendo64 and
    play station! His grandmother sent him a new computer, and his best friend
    gave him tickets to the concert he wanted to go to, Kid Rock and Limp
    Bizkit! Then he inherited a brand-new tv from his aunt! He was goin’ wild!
    the next day his secret crush asked him out, and they have been going out
    ever since.

    Now, you heard the stories. I know which person i’d rather
    be, but thats up to you. I wouldn’t wanna end up like Barbra but thats
    only me. We all want what we cant have but now’s ur chance to go out with
    that special somebody ur waiting for. Take it or leave it. If you send
    this to-
    1 person- you will lose all luck in ur love
    life…..forever!!!!!
    10 people- your crush will say they like you as a
    friend……ONLY!!!!!
    15 people- your crush will say they like you
    20 people- your crush will ask you out!
    25 people- your crush will kiss you!!
    30 people – Your crush will have sex with you
    35 people or more- All of the above!!
    Don’t blow it, it’s ur chance to shine! Have
    everything u wanted, and more! Now, complaining cus u dont have any
    friends. Well theres an answer 4 everything. It’s simple, just go in a
    chat room, pick some names and send away! but here’s the catch…..you only
    have one hour to send it after being read. Please pass this to everyone u
    know and keep it going!

  • Yay for Metros!! My boyfriend found my Xanga through the Metro and yeah. We decided if we produce offspring, it’s middle name will be “Xanga” (cause we’re cheesey like that) :)

  • Great feature, however, I would love to see one major change with it.  The ability to filter the metros a little more would make it infinitly more useful to me.  Teens are going to have no interest in a parenting blog,  and an parent is really not going to want to sift through the thousands of teen blogs to see if there are other parents in their area, and retirement age people aren’t likely to want either blogs that talk about kids, or teen’s blogs.

  • hey well this is not all that cool i think is so boring……. except 4 my site its the bomb!!!
    wellanyways g2g buh bi..

  • dude what’s up i heard you were mad at me? it be nice to know what i did, but considering it’s coming from you it’s,to much to ask. write me back so i know if ur mad at me or not!

  • hI, i WONDERED WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE ON THE FRONT PAGE OF XANGA?

  • im so bored

  • wath is up people this is jair o comone i ned coments if i dont get any i b fuking piz the i well have to sot down this ting gril gril plz get me some coments u know i lov girl im em 14 omos 15 this year and im single  and im a hot maxican .

  • IS THERE ANY WAY U CAN SET UP AN ADVANCE SEARCH ON THERE TO WHERE I CAN SEARCH FOR CERTAIN AGE GROUPS….CERTAIN RACE….LIKE SAY ASIANS!…CERTAIN SEX- MALE OR FEMALE, …..ETC. PLEEEEEEASE!!! SEARCHING FOR HOUSTON METRO HAS LIKE 42000 PEOPLE ON THERE!!! AND IT TAKES FOREVER….ESPECIALLY THERE ARE YOUNG MEMBERSS ON THERE THATS 12 AND 18 AND SUCH….AS I AM 24 YEARS OLD! I THINK THAT NEW FEATURE WOULD BE GREAT !! AND HELPFUL! AND WOULD MAKE THIS XANGA WEBSITE THE BEST!!! PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! THANKS!!!

  • (im just new and dont know what the eprops are all about but) i just have a suggestion.. other than the ‘metros’, why not make searching easy.. there should have a search where u put the email address of someone u know so then u can easily find them.. coz, ive been using metros and i still havent found the person im looking for.. there are people who doesnt join it so email search is definitely the best.. 

  • cool how do we find people like that ?????
    r u like going to send it to us?

  • awsome cool dude iam evil

  • can you help me with my web how you put picture just go to http://www.xanga.com/Christopherxxx

  • you definately made too many metros in Russia.

  • hi john …. can you please do something about this problem!!!

  • hey

    how do u actually do this whole metro thing??? how can you find ppl

  • While I think this is a great feature, how about being able to search for xangans within my age group?

  • Hey! What’s up not to much here just chillin? But yeah I’m new at this but nice meeting you guys.

  • Actually, I hate the metros.  I can’t say I’m from a place that doesn’t exist anymore.  But I can see why others would like it.

  • Woo-hoo! A member of the Xanga team’s blog! Well, I just decided to comment here because of the opportunity to increase traffic to my site. Selfish, huh?

  • Hello! I want to say thanks for an interesting site about a subject. Your blog is my absolute favorite on the internet! Thanks again for a nice site.
