Livejournal: bigger than Google

...or at least, it is in Russia. So says Alexa.

Edit: that link doesn't work, and I can't figure out how to find a better one. Sorry, you'll just need to go on blind faith!

blind faith, I tell you! blind faith!

or, slightly more seriously: googlefight is counting something totally different from Alexa, and isn't restricted to Russia. Obviously worldwide LJ is pretty insignificant, but it is astoundingly huge in Russia. Plus minor things, like google doesn't index huge chunks of lj, and you aren't counting mentions of 'lj' or 'ΠΆΠΆ' (russian slang for lj).
