We interrupt your musical stylings, pre-Easter Peep-vilification and numb, Twitter-scrolling horror to bring you a once-again relevant blast from the past: the LJ vs. Dreamwidth decision.

*The option to use either the new style friends feed OR your own custom friends page design that matches your journal will be permanent*In the standard site comment pages, Subject Lines are back up in the header bar of the comment where they belong ( Read more... )

I'm just gonna quote the post here, because...yeah.
