Talk:LG15

Distinction between LG15 and lonelygirl15

Right now, this page redirects to lonelygirl15, which made sense when LG15 and lonelygirl15 referred to the same thing. Now, if I understand correctly, LG15 includes both lonelygirl15 and KateModern, so maybe it should have its own page? If someone else understands more how this works, perhaps they can help explain. But it seems to me as if there should be a distinction.--Jonpro 21:57, 4 January 2008 (CST)

I disagree...the Creators may have chosen lg15.com as the collective domain, but I assume that was purely because KM hadn't started yet, and the term "breeniverse" is not used outside the community - which newcomer would go and guess-type "breeniverse.com" rather than "lg15.com" or "lonelygirl15.com" after seeing just a few vlogs on youtube? (In addition, lg15.com is a simply a better domain, as it's shorter and easier to remember.)

Within the community, nobody uses "lg15" as a cover term. Fans clearly differ between "lonelygirl15" and "kate modern" as well as "lg15" and "km". When fans mean the universe as a whole, it's either "the breeniverse" or "lg and km". If you go into the chatroom and talk about "lg15", everybody assumes "lonelygirl15", not both lonelygirl15 and kate modern.

I think it's purely a marketing/domain value thing and absolutely irrelevant for general usage. In fact, I'm pretty sure I've seen the term "breeniverse" on the main page and in video endings. As such, I vote for keeping the redirect.
