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 want to see what will happen. I am concerned they will ruin the LJ experience for those of us using it.

right now, the internet is no nice place to be...
everything is kind of falling apart.. and all at once.. *sigh*

I'm not even really sure what LJ wants to change. I'm not against new stuff, but they don't really need to mess up all the old working stuff.

I get the sense that there will be a major redesign of the site coming through soon. The whole front page and all that. I am not sure that I will move as all my comms and graphics are here but I wanted to open the dialogue about it. I am setting up on DW just in case while account creation is open there.

that's what I did as well... just... in case.
lets hope we won't have to actually use it.
