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.

Second invitation to participate in research project

[pubprivblog.livejournal.com]

Last week I invited you to participate in a research project about LiveJournal users' reactions to the January 2009 SUP layoffs and user loyalty to social networking sites. I wanted to let you know that I am still interested in having you participate. This participation consists of two things. First, I will read and analyze your posting(s) about the layoffs. Then I will ask you to participate in a short (not more than half an hour) interview about LiveJournal and other social networking sites. The analysis of the blog postings and interviews will be included in a paper to be presented at an academic conference in October and will be prepared for possible publication in an academic journal thereafter.

If you are interested in participating, please go to http://tinyurl.com/LJCritical and fill out the Informed Consent form that you find there. I will then get in touch with you to schedule an interview.

Thanks in advance for your participation,
Sarah Ford
