Life beyond LJ
Feb. 23rd, 2010 03:14 pmI'm working my way through comments and emails, so please bear with me for the moment. My mood is still on the floor and I have almost no energy, so it's taking me a while to type them, then I have go back and take out the typos.
And just to give me more to reply to, I was wondering if anyone out there uses a blogging platform other than LJ, and if you do, which one? For a work project on Web 2.0 tools, I've been keeping a Blogger blog going, and if I'm honest, I can't stand it. I find the interface awkward, the lack of threaded comments bizarre and the whole site difficult to navigate. The only thing it has going for it is that I can use my Google account, which isn't without its own problems for keeping my fannish life well away from my professional life.
So what places do you use? No need to link me to them unless you want to (see separation note above ;)) but what platforms do you find good? Wordpress? Typepad?
I'd like to keep a non-fannish blog going once I finish with the work programme, but I want to keep it somewhere that doesn't make me want to throw things at the screen every time I use it.
For thanks in advance, have an article about an early Turkish temple, Ambigram magazine (if you like art/design and don't know what that is, just click the link. Trust me, I'm a librarian), and Giant George, the world's tallest dog.
