Dreamwidth

[ericadawn16]

Putin and other shadiness has me a little scared for my journal. I have eight years and a lot of entries invest here which I don't want to lose which means

I think it's time that

I have to get a Dreamwidth

That is the best way to backup LJ, right?

So, how do I do that?
Can I still post here and have it automatically backed up there?
Do I have to have that crossposted tag at the bottom?

You can sign up for Dreamwidth the same way you signed up for LiveJournal (Dreamwidth no longer requires that somebody have an invite code in order to join). Joining is free, though you can upgrade to a paid account if you choose to (Free accounts can't edit their comments similar to have LJ was, but... Dreamwidth is ad - free, even for the free accounts, so no worries about pesky pop - ups or banners if you don't fee like paying for an account at the moment).

Importing your LJ entires isn't as instaneous as simply signing up for Dreamwidth, though this from their FAQ describes how to import pretty good and who to go to if you run into problem importing your entries (and no, your LJ entries will not be erased from your LJ when you import them).
