So. How do you backup your journal? I'm currently wrestling with Semagic and the LJ Export feature right now, and neither satisfies. I have 1,631 journal entries, and it wants me to back this shit up by MONTH?

There has to be a better way. What's yours?

I generally use Ljbook, but it seems to have collapsed under the weight of hundreds of thousands of panicking Harry Potter slashers.

I figure I'll try ljarchive (http://www.fawx.com/software/ljarchive/) when I get home tonight. I want to try to backup fats too, if that's even possible. I am mostly curious as to how many pages it'd be.

ha! i haven't noticed anything with semagic, but i have little basis for comparison. do you save your entries as an excel file or as xml?

[polianarchy]

okeh! LJ archive took about seven minutes to DL all my entries AND comments. i am one satisfied customer. thanks for the tip!

[sweeny_todd]

I don't know, but I'm curious as well.

[polianarchy]

i'm sure LJ won't be going anywhere, but just in case....
