Anticipating the imminent death of teh LiveJournals...

May 08, 2010 08:29

Sadly, LJ seems to be petering out. I've been fairly active on Facebook lately, so I guess I should tell my LJ comrades how to find me over there, in case you haven't already.

On Facebook I am "Silver Goth."

Also, if you care, on FetLife I am Silvergoth.

It's not that I don't love you! Really!

turncoat, deserting scumbag, traitor, running dog

I have dreamwidth invite codes if you're interested.

Very kind of you. I'm not currently interested in exploring that platform, but I do appreciate the offer!

I'm posting as much as ever, which okay, isn't all that much. But I still vastly prefer LJ for longer posts and photography.

I can understand that. I just never post anything long. ;-)

No! I refuse to get a facebook. Their privacy record is hideous. I am sticking to LJ, and it seems to me to be as active as it normally is :-)

I respect your decision.

FWIW - I have done what I can to disable their nefarious plot - ie: followed the instructions on turning the sharing things off that various knowledgeable friends have been sending around the web...

Unfortunately, the user agreement you agreed to when setting up Facebook allows them to reset your privacy settings when performing "updates" as well as selling your personal information and activities on the web to third parties.

I rather like Zang's post on his tech blog here: http://bqmackintosh.juryrigger.com/?p=11 explaining some of the privacy issues.

Don't do it. Facebook will own everything about you, permanently. It's an evil, awful corporate mess.
