entire post, for the most part, jacked wholesale from the lovely [personal profile] bossymarmalade:



Starting Friday June 19th and running until Sunday the 21st, with a day for recovery overflow on Monday. = It's all very casual so I don't anticipate people needing a whole lot of time to prepare.

These are the only rules:

- Your post must involve food/liquor, music, dance, or some combination
- You must link at least two other Block Party entries that you enjoyed

Feel free to use the banner up there -- hotlink away, I don't mind -- or fiddle with it however you want, or create your own! Just let people know it's going down!

Shiny!

http://heather11483.dreamwidth.org/

It really is quite shiny. I can upload multiple icons at once and expand comment threads -- with a free account. There are NO ADS -- with a free account. I can import my entire LJ into DW with comments and tags and such, and crosspost to both journals at the same time without having to use Semagic or any other of those programs that I never could figure out. Among other things (here's a good post with some info). It's not really the LJ-clone I thought it was.

Anyway. I'm not leaving LJ because, well, all of you are here ♥ (and also, I don't want to). *g* But I'll probably crosspost or something. Mostly, I can't resist shiny toys and I want to be wherever fandom is; if any of you are moving, I don't want to lose you.

If any of you are there already, feel free to add me! I don't know who all's there; it's in closed beta still. Open beta starts on the 30th. Here is some info about the beta process, OpenID and the best way to get one now and once open beta starts. If I can get invite codes I will be passing them out to as many of you as I can, starting with people I've chatted to about it here or on Twitter or on YM or wherever we talked about it and then going from there, I reckon. No idea when I'll get them or how many I'll have but I expect I'll be able to get some at some point. I'll probably buy my account when I can, so that should help. Someone was awesome enough to get me a code so I want to pay it forward. Plus I want, um, actual friends over there, so. *g*

Huh

I'm not intentionally spamming or anything but...

The whole Dreamwidth thing; what gives? I hadn't even heard about it until just this week, but apparently this is that new fandom-friendly LJ-esque service about which there has been buzz for over a year now. Are any of you planning to get one? I don't mind grabbing an account if people I know are going over there (because I can never resist trying new shiny things), even if I have no earthly intention of leaving LJ.

The fact that there is already an an inaugural comment!porn meme is a good sign.

This stuff just makes me worry more about fandom dissipating, though. Sigh.

*looks into setting up an OpenID while I read more about what gives*
