So I have no problem being in the same room with someone who is reading one of my books. You know, a properly bound book and all that.

I don’t imagine much will change at all, and can at least wish that if things do change they will perhaps change…

Looks like Livejournal is being sold. I’ll be interested to watch how this develops, because the solitary reason I use LJ is because despite its flaws (and there are many), is that it’s one-stop-shopping for comments. I used to use Moveable Type on my own website (and *God* how I miss the ability to, you know, design my own look & feel), but I was collecting 1. a lot of comment spam, and 2. comments in 3 different locations, not all of which were emailed to me.
