Now I feel silly.
Sep. 15th, 2010 10:14 amI have intended to start crossposting for a long time, since people seem to be gradually migrating to Dreamwidth (let me know if you need an invite code) and I do like the ethos and transparency at Dreamwidth, while at LJ I like my massive unwieldy and stubborn friendlist.
I, uh, never realized just how easy it was to set up crossposting, though, or I would have done it ages ago. For those of you who have, like me, been considering it without investigating it, hop over to Dreamwidth and have a look. It took me about ten seconds to set up.
ETA: Now, how easy/complicated is it to import old posts from one platform to the other? Do I have to go back and do it manually, one at a time, or is there some clever app that would let me mass-duplicate old posts and toss 'em up here? Central archiving is nice...
Also, something I don't know yet and am about to find out: will this edit automatically crosspost as well?
ETA2: Apparently it will. Nifty.
ETA3: And as of now I have imported everything from both
matt_doyle and
mattador .
Holy cow.
