Obviously, I've not been using LiveJournal for awhile, not even to lurk. This isn't because I'm using something else for my blogging. Awhile back I decided to try making some changes both to how I portrayed myself to the world, and to how I spent my time. Both of these have had a mostly positive impact.
I've been called back to LJ by spammers, and I've shut down the comments section as a result of their actions. It's "friends-only" now. But, there's not going to be a whole lot of call for commentary. Even if I return to long-form blogging, it's very unlikely to be here. For one thing, I've spent a lot of the past two years learning CSS and other web dev mojo (although I much prefer app dev); I've owned my own domain name for a decade, and maybe it'd be nice to finally do something with that.
This is not a goodbye. If I do wind up doing something web-related, I'll try to announce it here, too. This is just my way of saying that if you miss me, I'm still around, I'm just metaphorically hanging out in different bars and drinking a lot less than I used to.
