DW?

[hoosierbitch]

Anyone got an extra dreamwidth invite code? I want to go poke around over there. There seems to be a migration. What're y'alls thoughts on the LJ/DW divide? Where do y'all read fics at? Are there good/better/best ways to make fic accessible to everybody? I'm worried I'll lose track of comments if it's in multiple places, or that I'll lose readers. Is crossposting hard? I turn into a crotchety old person when I have to type in CODES and things. Well - more like a frustrated orangutan, honestly. Or Zoolander (the files are IN the COMPUTER?).

I'm thinking about trying to add the rest of my stuff to AO3 again. Last time I tried I ran away with my tail between my legs. I think it'd be nice to have it all in the same place. Just a lot of little nitpicky edit stuff to get it formatted correctly, without all my weird notes in the wrong places.

*sigh*

It's late, and hot, and I'm in a weird fucking mood. Tomorrow I think I will take a long walk with the dogs when I wake up, and listen to some history podcasts about the Peleponnesian War (IT IS MY FAVORITE WAR), and then go sit in a cafe and write. There's nothing I can do about housing for next fall. Still waiting for work to call me back about when I can start up again. So instead of fretting, I should write porn. Because that makes me happy.

I joined DW and I'm not all that impressed with it. I mean, it's ok, but I don't see why it's that much better than LJ. They changed a few buttons around but ilooks just like LJ, only with limited access to the public to keep it from crashing as often.

Maybe the $3 a month makes a difference? Because right now I just sort of find DW kind of "eh".

It does look a LOT like LJ. But hopefully w/o the constant crashing...? I'll be happy to have a back-up, in case LJ goes crazy and accidentaly eats everything. It's really more for the folks who don't have LJ, so they can still get all my stuff. And AO3 b/c it's nice to have everything so easily searchable!!

But everything will be staying on LJ!!!

I don't even know what AO3 is. ...what is it? :-D

My thing about DW is that it's fine, it works, yay, but I don't know if it's like "OMG, it's WAAAAAY better than LJ."

It's a website that may crash less, but other than that, I didn't find it all that life changing or awesome or you know...interesting. :-D
