A Chilling Development

[ncarraway]

Is it just my imagination, or did LJ's advertisements suddenly become page-crushing monsters that play video and freeze up the whole page until the video starts to run? Come on, LJ, why won't you play ice? What if I were using dial-up; it'd load at a glacial pace, leaving me out in the cold. For a website that's supposedly for community, this is an awfully frosty reception. Sidebar ads are one thing, but if they're snowballing into something that large and offensive, I'm going to have to find a client - don't people make client programs through which one can post to LJ? Can one also use them as readers? If not, I might have to go cold turkey for a while.

In other news, I am really feeling the post-workout ache across my lower abdomen. I have finally found an exercise regime that gets that area.
