I'm seeing mass exodus to Dreamwidth. Trying to figure out how to manage my relationships both here and there, when I've had enough trouble maintaining them just here. Any thoughts are welcomed.
I've seen people go to WordPress and Blogger, but very few to Dreamwidth.
Do I need to set up a new account and learn the ins and outs of a whole new system? No, I do not. I have a life to live. So I'll be here at LJ for a long time yet.
:-) I think a lot of people go to DW because it is set up so much like Livejournal. Few of us want to go through a steep learning curve again for our blogs.
I can't put my finger on why, but I distrust Blogger a lot. Also I don't like their comment format.
What I love about LJ is the sense of community that developed here. Six years ago, five years ago, it was an amazing place to meet people. I don't get that these days, but on the other hand I don't need it in that way right now, so I'm content. But I hate to see so many old buddies going someplace new.
