What?! I don't pay any attention. I posted my write up of the paley fest, read a couple of posts and there was mentioning of an LJ strike. I'm curious.

Either someone will tell me or I will spend some time tomorrow reading back 60 or so posts on my friends list to figure it out. Whatever.

Apparently people were mad because the new owners of LJ were filtering things like bisexual and fandom off the most popular interests lists. Also, the whole no free basic accounts w/o ads for new users. The biggest deal seemed to me to be the fact that LJ tried to sneak it past everyone instead of announcing or communicating changes. I linked to an LJ on mine that had a lot more info. **shrugs**

I thought it was interesting, but I don't know how helpful it would be. I wasn't even on until after the strike window was closed anyway so whatever. :-)
