LJ is being robust!

[smeddley]

But the timing, I'm sure, is freaking people out. It's like the circle of doom... people worry about a collapse (GreatestJournal finally called it quits for real, I heard) which causes them to backup like mad, which clogs the servers, which causes panic, which leads to more downtime, more panic, more clogging, more... well, I suppose you get the picture.

I took the downtime to create a Twitter.

*hangs head in shame*

I know, I know. But it's easy, and really, if LJ is going to get spotty, it's a great way to keep in touch. So, f-list, go get a Twitter and add me. I found a few of you out there, but I don't know if everyone has one and/or if people used a different name.

yes i was just trying to email you privately...

and panic. read all the press and info on the sell-off to the new Russian company.

sounds like time to archive, back-up, etc...

i used to be better at doing this!

do you use facebook?

i'm so addicted to that but I wouldn't blog there. blogging is more for my private surreal virtual life.

I was pretty shocked to read that yesterday. I read a couple LJ blogs, but I am totally pathologically addicted to ONTD. If LJ goes down and takes ONTD with it, I'm going to cry!

I've heard of Twitter, but I'm not sure exactly what you do with one...? (just too busy to investigate stuff!)

OMG. I have to say, I'm utterly shocked. Seriously shocked that YOU got a Twitter account.

I think I'm going to set up a Blogger page. I think I at least have all my LJ friends' email addresses so I won't lose anyone. But damn, I've got to get my journal archived, and I've got to get all the memories (mostly craft ideas and recipes) printed out. Those are the things I really don't want to lose.
