So here we are... finally running full tilt away from LJ. After that last change in the terms of service, it was finally necessary. I think I'm still going to keep it as a place where my tweets are aggregated, so it doesn't clutter up things here. If you're looking for actual blog-like posts in my history, you're going to want to go back two years. I've got SOME posts between there and here, but they're hard to find in the twitter post noise.
***EDIT: Perhaps... Yes. I'm going to think about weeding out the posts pulled from LJ that were just tweet aggregations. You'll know it if I do. END EDIT***
It's amazing how long you'll keep something out of nostalgia.
I think one of the biggest parts was the amount of work that goes into building up my backlog of posts, the exact look and feel of the page design, and the historical interactions (comments on my blog but more importantly my interactions with people on other blogs) that have amassed over the decade(s) since I started.
At this point, since I have a backup through June 2014 on Wordpress and (once confirmed) another one here, I may delete all of my old posts on LJ. Yes, yes, I know someone probably has it saved somewhere... but it's the thought that counts.
