Change in Posting Status

[metallidean_grl]

It has been brought to my attention this morning that one of my posts from this past week was put on Google Alerts. I don't want my posts going out to Google Alerts or anywhere else for that matter.  So, because of this I have decided to flock all of my postings from here on out. There may and will be some postings that I will unlock to all users,

More and more people are flocking their journals. It's a shame really. Hard to get to know new people if everyone's journal is locked and you can't see anything they post to see if they would be someone you might want to be friends with. Oh well.

If you don't want what you're saying going out to the general public, then you should be flocking your posts.

But alternatively, you might want to look into this:

Maybe there's a way to lock off your entries from search engines so you don't have to worry about Google Alerts.

I don't mind if other users of LJ look at my general posts, what I do mind is my posts being taken by other medias and posted, like Google Alerts did with one of mine.

Thanks for the link. I will look into that.

You're welcome.
