Getting comfy

[sid]

I haven't done much here yet.  No curtains, nothing in the fridge.  But my icons just imported!  And I can waste some time uploading more, since I temporarily get 200. (I think?)

Thanks to everyone who "friended" sidlj.livejournal.com.  I guess we can all kick her to the curb now?  And can I admit that I laughed as so many people subscribed to her?  You know, she couldn't actually post anything.  :-P

I don't have any real plans for how to manage two journals.  We'll see what happens.  But I wanted to be sure to get in on the fun, and not to lose track of anyone.

I do believe this place is awesome, in concept and in execution, and I wish Dreamwidth all the best going forward.  :-)

Linky links are good, as long as I don't have to play golf on them.

While I'm asking impertinent questions -- why kick sidlj to the curb, and why couldn't she post? I feel as if I missed the punch line . . . or maybe the lead-up.

sidlj, like yourself, was an OpenID account, and those users can't post to their journal or join a community and post. But they can upload half a dozen icons and subscribe to (watch) people and communities and post comments on other people's entries.

Now that I have a real account, sidlj serves no purpose here, so I deleted her (after subscribing to the folks and comms she had subscribed to in her two days here).

Come April 30th, I can either fork over some money or let sid lapse down to a free account, which is less limited than an OpenID account but not by much (once you've been spoiled. *g*)

I'll round up some links for ya.

Here's a few links:

How to follow someone who moves to DW: http://zvi.dreamwidth.org/510885.html

Synecdochic's initial announcement on LJ: http://synecdochic.livejournal.com/226141.html

And in the course of looking around, I learned that with your OpenID account, assuming you validated your email address, you WILL RECEIVE an invite code on or before April 30th. A few will be going out randomly; everyone gets one April 30th. :-)
