(On the topic of LJ being back: I'm hermionesviolin on
dreamwidth as well -- I've had an
OpenID for a long time and finally used the invite code I got for that -- though I haven't had the time/energy to actually turn anything into posts these days ... but at least now I have it as an option for cross-posting. I have a reading list on the OpenID account; will eventually mirror that on the actual DW account. Add access etc. as seems appropriate to you.)
