Everyone has things they blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by asking me about something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on slash, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc. Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other.
- LJ is abolishing free accounts. I'm going to bed now, so I'll read up and offer commentary on this on the morrow, but it doesn't look good.
- Nominations are about to be open for the LJ advisory board. Considering I worked for Mindvox, I should know better, but I am tempted to run. Also, hello, Istanbul?
- Oh fencing. Fencing fencing fencing.

Re: LJ abolishing free accounts, for those who want more info
Date: 2008-03-13 04:59 am (UTC)Basic Accounts
Basic Account is an option available to accounts which were created before March 12, 2008. No account created after this date can be turned into a Basic Account. Basic Accounts will not have any advertising displayed on their accounts, but will have fewer benefits and features. A Basic Account includes the following:
* Upload up to 6 userpics
* 25 subscriptions for notification of new posts, friends, comments, or events
In conclusion, if you have a free account with no ads, LJ is not making you choose between leaving, having ads, or giving them money. Which is something. But if you want to create a new journal, you do need to either put up with ads or give them money.
