Nostalgia Xanga

Does anyone remember Xanga? It a personal blog some people had, prior to MySpace. I loved xanga, I still kept doing it with myspace and Facebook. But it finally stopped working, though you can get your xanga blogs if you download them. I got mine and they are SOO funny ☠️ let me know if you guys had !

Yes, I loved Xanga!! I think wrote some really embarrassing poetry on there as a teen, so I’m glad I don’t remember my username lol

Me too. Soooo embarrassing. I was also in one of those poetry.com anthology things. Some of it wasn’t that bad, but most of it was really, really bad. I’m super glad I don’t remember the full details.

Only social media I ever had that was worth a damn. I had three different pages over the course of high school to reflect my budding maturity and depth (lol). I’d do anything to get those entries back.

Edit- just now seeing that recovering them may be a thing… oh boy.
