Another year, another LJ panic. Welcome to 2009.

I'm not linking to that ValleyWag article because I don't want to link to any article that shits on the LJ userbase for being unique, rather than just some dumb frat kids.

I guess I'll make a backup, and this time I might even start a spare backup journal and use semagic blah blah blah. I just wish fandom would import LJ's free code and move somewhere to run off a server run by fandom. (Except, that would be even less stable than being run by Russians.)

Even though I really doubt LJ is going anywhere -- we're just not going to get new updates. Which should please everyone, because god knows the userbase hates updates and changes. Maybe there'll be even LESS wank in 2009?

... it wouldn't be hard to make money here to keep it operating, I think. Brad used to do it. It's just that it's not the sort of money they want to make, advertising books instead of booze.

(And ha, come to think of it LJ should be thrilled getting less updates.)
