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 don't mind the new icon selector tool. That is ok but I hate the new comment window so that is something. have to see where this all does. I am just setting up accounts in case they are needed. Best to do that while it is easy to do.

Kind of like the new comment window with the bigger text box. I never use the subject line so it's not a bother, but that's all a matter of personal preference.

I check in on DW every so often, but there are very few posts that aren't cross posted - I think LJ'd have to royally tick people off before there was any kind of migration, which is a pity as I'm fond of DW, but there you go - people like the familiar.

Probably, you are right. I just wanted to raise the issue and see where folks were at with the issue. I am not sure where I am with it so...

I would have to see the redesign in implementation to know.
