Brief hello post..

[silere]

I am moving here following friends fleeing livejournal after the recent fiasco involving LJ abandoning member privacy for popularity with twitter and facebook... i am contemplating porting my livejournal over.. and also contemplating not doing so, and starting with a clean slate here.

If i've added you recently, it's because your profiles or posts seem interesting, and/or we have mutual acquaintances. That, and i really don't know many people here yet. By no means am i expecting automatic add-backs, especially considering i have no content here yet for you to get a feel for what kind of person i am. Soon, i will make an intro post, or a bio, or some such tidbit. It may take me a few days to get used to the idea of moving here.. and i'm not sure yet if i'm leaving LJ entirely or not... probably not, unless my friends come here as well.

I am glad you're here. I liked porting over my LJ, but you can always do that any time really, as well, depending. They did it so fast! I couldn't believe how quickly they got 4000+ entries and 66k comments over. Especially as they like warn that it may take a day.

I liked your profile … (searched interest "the sea") so I hope you'll come around often. Also you're the first person I've seen that has mentioned the recent LJ trouble using specifics. DW takes getting used to after long-term exposure to LJ. My DW use amplified in August, when I had to delete my LJ account because of RL issues. Who knew a few weeks later LJ would again do something ridiculous?

Well, good luck!

Welcome to Dreamwidth! I jumped ship very early with regards to LJ (more than a year ago) and when I left, I left completely and never looked back. Until recently it was a little lonely here, but with the recent insurgence of dissatisfied LJ users, things are picking up!

I do not see any mutual friends, but I do see that we share a few interests, one of them being Joseph Campbell. His work is very important to me, so your interest in him gives you something of an instant pass in my book. ^^

I look forward to our continued interaction, not to sound too stuffy or anything... I know... I totally do. XD

Hi! You look interesting, and we have some mutual interests with you, so we figured we'd add.
