LJ basic elimination:

Man, just…man. That rightly puts an end to my fledgling desire to move back— apparently Brad, i.e. 6A Brad on the advisory board, told them it wasn’t a good idea, and they went ahead and did it anyway. I.e., not promising as far as how much the advisory board can influence anything, so not worth crying over.

My plans as far as journalling now include trying out Tumblr for reals and learning enough PHP that I can produce something like Yong Fook’s lifestream thing, which pulls in posts from his Flickr, Twitter and Tumblr accounts (and maybe one I’m missing) and lays them out gorgeously, and does the comments for everything with Disqus. The way he’s set it up, backing up the database he uses to pull everything together will back up all the data he’s posted elsewhere, and that is neato neatest and I SO want to do it.

Also, I think I’ll go back to Generator for my IJ theme. I am SICK of the one I’ve got, it just rubs me wrong.

Book reviews:

Funny how I always find time to read even when I’m unhappy. It’s one of those things I’ve never really been able to deprive myself of.
