LJ has a 'random journal' feature in its toolbar; out of boredom curiosity, I hit it three times in succession. And got three Russian journals in succession. I don't suppose that's enough of a statistical universe to draw any conclusions, but I don't think I'll bother again. Russian not being one of my languages.

The Russians buying it is a consequence, rather than a cause of the popularity -- the English part of the operation is becoming more and more an appendix. It's kind of like how Orkut is hardly used as social software but anyone but Brazilans these days.

Really? I hadn't realised the bias fell that way. Well, no reason to, I guess. The two populations must be almost totally distinct; I do have a handful of Russian friends here, but only because they speak English. Damn being monoglottal...
