Problems on LJ?

[rhythmaning]

Following matgb's post the other day comes another warning that all may not be well in LJ-land, which fruminousb linked to.

Just in case, I have exported all my entries - you can save the files as XML or CSV (I did both!) - going for CSV is easier, since it automatically saves the files for you with the year and month reference.

I'll get on that later today, car MOT and other stuff had it as low priority "do when I've the chance" post.

But given that I'll need to backup and put my public content elsewhere as a trial run anyway, might as well do it if I get the chance.

In the meantime, some former LJ staff are working on a fully open source alternative called Dreamwidth, they've got enough funding to keep it going until they go live, as they plan to make it fully interoperable, I might get some people together to pay for an install of our own:
