An online journal or diary like Weblog, My-diary, Livejournal, etc., etc.. People post as they would in an actual journal or diary.
I write stupid stereotypes on urbandictionary about people who have xanga; except I know all this because I...
A) Actually have one and actively maintain the page on a daily basis.
B) Have no life of my own and scan other peoples depressing pages so that I don't feel like my life sucks worse
C) Am just pissed because I tried to steal someone else's HTML and couldn't quite figure out how to insert it into my own code and the page quit working.

Xanga is an online journal (otherwise known as a Blog) where people of ALL ages and ALL races, etc, can document their feelings, emotions, and life. It is like writing in a conventional diary or journal, only via the internet. While there are many stereotypes associated with Xangans (the popular, most used term for Xanga users) none of them are accurate.

:::TAKEN FROM PC MAGAZINE:::
>>>>Xanga originated back in 1999 as a site for sharing book and music reviews. Driven by member preferences, it quickly morphed into a full-scale blog site, but it retains a marvelous ability to share reviews. Just name the song, movie, or book that interests you and Xanga grabs a link to Amazon.com, including a thumbnail of the cover. Xanga aggregates the links into a Top 50 list. Click the xTools button in the Links toolbar to comment on the site you're visiting, or post to your blog via e-mail. The attractive, fully WYSIWYG editor permits easy insertion of smileys, symbols, and links, and it automates the process of uploading and including images. You can try a free Xanga site, then upgrade to get more features and no ads.
It's easy to locate like-minded people among Xanga's 2.5 million users by checking out its blog rings. Members with similar interests can subscribe to one another's blogs (when someone subscribes or unsubscribes, you're notified). Xanga also gives the ability to subscribe without notification, a way to try a blog without risking offending the blogger by unsubscribing. Visitors can comment on your posts or give "eProps" to especially good ones.<<<<

Xanga is:
1. A weblog community. More specifically its a site used to maintain a diary/journal.
Xanga is not:
1.To be hated on:
A. You're a jerk if you post negative things about something so brilliant.
B. You probably own a live journal.
C. Just jealous Xanga is better.
2. Only a place where asian teeny boppers roam.
3. Only your average blog. It's a community.
Such views are expressed by ignorant individuals who in fact owned or considered owning a Xanga. The fact they know all this is because they've been to a couple hundred xanga pages in the past couple of months.

The bottom of the barrel of blogs. It's incredible that the user base is able to write so much, yet say so little. I have to give a bit of kudos though, considering the fact that many of the users have the reading comprehension of a bowl full of pubes.
Steve honestly did have the reading comprehension of a bowl full of pubes, which made his Xanga an admirable effort

Xanga is a web log community, or blog, for people too stupid or lazy to learn html and make a real website. Then they put pictures of them and their friends or their pet as a profile picture, then say their main interest is God and tell us about their boring Christian life in a preppy-fad way.
Jane - "You so tottally have to check out my xanga!"
Judy - "OKAY!!"

The "trendiest" xanga -- an online journal must have the following information:
1) A list of every little thing that you did, including trips to the bathroom, shower, and anything personal that you should want the world to know.
2) If you went out, you must list every single person that you went out with. It's only a superb entry if you can list everyone. INCLUDING people you saw, people you met, people you wanted to meet and people you wanted to see.
3) In your status bar, you must "shoutout" to ALL the people you know.
OR
- Write a mushy lovey dovey poem, saying i miss you, i love you, i want you, why cant i have you, i cant live without you, i am so desperate for some ass, you know..that kinda stuff..
4)
a) To add some 'flavor' to the site, you must talk in incomprehensible ghetto slang that only you and your homies would understand. oh yea. almost forgot, you have to ToGgLe YoUr LeTtErS LiKe tHiS, oThErWiSe YoUr XaNgA eNtRy WiLl n0t Be CoMpLeTe!!
OR
b) You may choose to write babyish, cute, sweet, you know write in words that makes reading take longer than it should.
5) At the end of each entry you must force your xanga friends to 'drop you some epills' or 'holla baqq!' (whatever that means).
6) At the entrance and exit of your xanga page you MUST have consistant pop ups reminding people to eprop you, miss you, threatning to kill people if they dont eprop you, curse out those who tries to right click.
7) Remember to curse a lot, but ONLY show your status!! no need to make sense either.
8) Yes, and self adulation is everything. you must first write about how your ass is so fine, and convince others that it's true by posting pretentious pictures of yourself showing your 'fine ass' (i've seen some pretty bugly pictures on xanga). While flattering yourself, your self esteem is then boosted, allowing you to continue being an egomaniac.
9) Try to make each xanga entry as concise as possible. Shorten your entry to one word if necessary, then force all your friends and random people to eprop you, making yourself look important.
10) End each sentence with lol. LoL a lot.
