Security Levels
- PUBLIC: All visitors to the site can read Public entries, even if they are not logged into a LiveJournal account.

- CUSTOM: A chosen group of people you list as Friends, as defined by custom friends groups you create, can read a Custom entry.
- PRIVATE: Only you can read your Private entries.
