My DWidth Statement

[ithildin]

Since everyone else is making them!

I will not be crossposting from Dreamwidth. One, all my nearly 200 bright shiny icons are here and I can't make do with just six. I could crosspost, come back here and edit the post and change the icon, but that would be kinda silly. Two, I need my LJ addon for Firefox to have a happy journal posting experience. Seriously, I don't know how I managed before I found LJ addon! And three, I have a permanent account here, plus all the comms I have.

What I will be doing is backing up my LJ to my DWidth journal a few times a week. and I'll accept comments on the posts in either place.

So far, there's nothing different enough about DWidth to compel me to move there lock, stock, and barrel. Now if the majority of my f'list were to move, I'd reconsider, but it would take a lot to pry me off my LJ.

I think that about covers it!

Amen sister! Every one is talking about the bright and shiny, and I'm going - where? So far they are very basic and only using LJ codes to function. I do understand they are still in beta. And they may just blow me away with their brillance at some point. If that happens I will reconsider.

Nothing agasint DWidth, but with my money invested in a permanent account here and all my icon space -- which is important to me -- so far, they just don't have anything to be able to compete with that. If I was just here month to month, then it might be different.
