Setting up...

[phyncke]

I am setting up RP journals and some graphics journals on dreamwidth - in anticipation of possibly moving things over here. What are other people doing about that. I am just curious. This redesign is surely coming, an impending fact of our online lives so I wonder what people are doing.

I don't see much life over here yet but the interface is snappy, the service is better. A kinder, gentler blog-o-sphere. And I have a permanent LJ and even with that, would consider a migration if the community were doing that.

Is it time to make a plan? I am not encouraged by this article (found posted a few places on the flist)

I got mildly peeved at the lack of consideration that we as loyal users are getting. So for lack of that, why stay? Really. I would like to know what the thought is.

I have an account at both but I totally dislike DW. I crosspost now from there to here but I don't actually read there since I can't make sense out of where anything is.

I've not seen much change here at LJ... but maybe it's because of paid account I have. I have not mirrored OEAM there either since I seriously don't want to deal with that headache.

I am just raising the point because of the changes that will be implemented soon on LJs end. I think we will not like them at all. I just wanted to raise the issue early and see what people thought. I don't have to move but DW has an interface that is closer to what we like about LJ.

Anyways. Things worth considering.
