I am in the midst of importing LJ to Dreamwidth, think it's gonna be a tad busy for a while - anyone know how long this may take? I have 3,431 entries, 7,019 comments posted, 7,495 comments received.  I think we might be a tad overreacting, but I prefer to know where my files are if LJ's plug is suddenly pulled.

Something else I have found out - it doesn't like the LJ code for Youtube. Ah well, crosspostingfrom here won't be so much of a problem :-)

For a start, that is not my IP address - I entered both domain name and personal IP separately HERE and got two distinctly different addresses.  I did the same with my Dreamwidth account and found that it was still in the USA, primarily at Virginia and Wisconsin. Above is my LiveJournal domain, which in addition tells me where the servers have relocated to. It looks like they moved lock stock just over three weeks ago.  Thing is, in real terms, what does that mean for me?

Well, when it came to case-sensitive material, I haven't really logged anything - the days when the net was comparatively free of hackers has long gone. Not that they would be that interested in what essentially is just housekeeping. However, I do have a couple or so pieces of written work, which (let's face it) will not be up for the Man Booker prize anytime soon, but of which I want to retain my autonomous hold.  Thing is, these days (especially with the turn round of our political scene) who would you trust MORE? Our 'Russian Friends' or our 'American Friends' (though it must be said, Dreamwidth don't appear to have a decernable agenda and in theory, nor do SUP)?

But for the record, SUP - just what IS your game, exactly?

So - yo, tell me.  Why are people suddenly jumping the LJ ship? It has been common knowledge for a while that the forum has been shuttling backwards and forwards to Russia, but it seems that people's friends and private docs are going missing.  Is this just a server issue, or are there more problems afoot?  I have been thinking of leaving LJ for a while, but quickly I found out that cherished LJ friends were not on other forums.  It seems however, that some have Dreamwidth accounts.

I went through some old files on only one particular subject and uploaded it to Word, to find that I had written a staggering 17,000+ words on it since January 2012. Let me tell you that is nothing in comparison to what I wrote/typed before - it's just the tinsiest fraction.  I was like - wow, so much airtime, where did it go?  I regret not uploading the stuff between 2006 to 2012 (I had a habit of clearing my journal one a year on New Years Eve, but have since given up, as I now blog more frerquently and it takes twice as long.

I, too, have a dreamwidth account, but seldom use it, as it was a tad empty.  Anyone from up here want to knock on that door, click HERE

Saw this on the Dreamwith fanfic secrets page and I am totally with the OP on this.  Love both of the actors in Endeavour, but especially Roger Allam (Fred Thursday), who was excellent in Ashes to Ashes as bent cop Charles 'Supermac' Mackintosh.
