I can’t say why, precisely, but LiveJournal has never truly held any attraction for me. Maybe its the user interface, but I think its mostly that I want to have full control of my stuff — and that’s simply not done in any online, managed service. The fact that it is censored in Iran also doesn’t really help, either.
But today when I found out that one of my favorite authors of all time, Scott Lynch, was an active user, I decided to create an account, so that I could send him a message. Anyways, here is my LiveJournal journal and also, I have set it up so that anything I post here is cross-posted straight there, using a neat WordPress plugin called the LiveJournal CrossPoster plugin.
I have also made my public notes available under http://journal.mmnaseri.com
