Dreamwidth rambling

Er I hope this doesn't cause any offense, but today I actually unsubscribed from quite a few of the DW accounts that I first added when we were creating them as LJ back-ups. All of those accounts still have mutual access, but I decided that I want to start to try and keep up with my DW flist as well (or "reading list" I guess) now that so many people have left for DW, and at the moment I find that I'm mostly just reading the same entries again that I've already read on LJ, so I've unsubscribed to friends that I'm already in touch with on LJ

For the moment I won't be cross-posting and using my own DW, but I am going to try and keep up with my "subscriptions" over there (is it just me, or is DW awfully impersonal??), and read through it after I've read my flist

I'm slowly trying to set up a filter for DW, but it's v faffy.

Like you, I'm reading a lot of things twice...

Yes, I found that I was skimming DW a bit as I'd read most of it on LJ already. I've decided that it makes more sense to take people off my DW reading list if I'm already following them on LJ, but then it felt rather awkward to suddenly take so many names off my reading list when we'd only just added one another on DW, so I had a panicky moment of hoping that none of my LJ friends would take offence at being removed from my DW (well I'm sure that nobody does particularly care lol)

Well, it makes perfect sense - I hadn't even thought of doing that.

Have been thinking of doing a poll asking where people want me to read them. But. Faffy...

It's definitely that! *g* I've had moments of wondering if I should cross-post so that I can better keep up with the DW-only people, but then I think about having conversations for the same entry scattered in two different blogs, and it really doesn't appeal to me quite honestly. Idk, I'll wait and see how things go with LJ I guess, and if many more of us move over there

I've been cross-posting for a good while now, partly because I have quite a few friends now who have left LJ completely.

Yes, the split comments is really annoying, but that's life. *sigh*
