Multiplication

So, at least one person noticed me messing about, doing test posts earlier (resulting in the slightly surreal occurance of recieving a comment notification for a post I had already deleted!)*; what I was testing was my ability to post to lj and blogger via email, and whether I could put images in posts made that way.

 

Basically, while I've been advocating the "wait and see" approach with regards to the recent developments on lj, I'm of the opinion that it never hurts to have a back-up plan. Which for me means blogger. I'm not prepared to abandon lj completely unless I really have to, because of the social network element. But in every other respect blogger provides all lj does and more.

 

So, what I'm getting at is that I can now be found at both davidwynne.blogspot.com and davidwynne.livejournal.com. From now on I'll be posting everything via email to both blogs at the same time, so they will for all intents and purposes be the same blog, just in two different places.

 

This is of course something of an experiment, and subject to change at any time. If things really get silly on lj, then I probably will stop blogging there all together... but if it all blows over the way I think it probably will, then chances are I'll start using the blogger page for something else, like maybe a sketchblog or something. We'll see, anyway.
