Cross Posting

[thespian]

Title
Allow users to cross post something between journals.

Short, concise description of the idea
Frequently I post things that are of interest to several groups that I'm involved in. For example, next month at dragoncon, in atlanta, I'll be hosting a sleepover night which we'll be watching the first season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, so it will be of interest

I belive this idea was turned down a while ago when it was brought up in lj_dev
i don't want to look up the link, but if you go back a month or two, you'll find a posting by alanj about it...

This was mainly turned down (i belive) because of the example of usenet, and the mass amouts of people who cross post to the wrong groups and stuff...

But i could be mistaken about this whole thing, and alan might have been talkign about something else.. if so, i'm sorry

We would have community maintainers (such as myself) asking for a "do not allow cross-posting" option.

(seriously, a lot of the time, I toss out these 'hey, idea!' ideas. then something drops in on me that's decided to be pretty well rounded. ;-)
