For some time now I've been mirroring my main blog "Out of Ambit" here at LJ. However, as probably all of you know, LJ's has been suffering some (apparently) politically-based ructions over the last couple of weeks, in the form of very annoying DDoS attacks that have been making it impossible to view or post content for prolonged periods.
As it happens, some kind person invited me to join Dreamwidth late last year, and I opened an account there, but never really got started using it. Now, though, I've discovered that it's possible to import all one's LiveJournal postings and comments into a Dreamwidth account. So I've done that, and the new mirror is here at http://dduane.dreamwidth.org.
Everybody should understand that I have no intention of abandoning LJ at this point. This is simply a mirror of a mirror (and a safety net in case the attacks on LJ cause some kind of irrecoverable data loss, Ghu forbid). NB: the Dreamwidth mirror may look strange for a little while until I hget the formatting / scheme sorted out.
(And just a note in passing: thanks to the kind folks who've sent me Dreamwidth invitations over the past week. I really appreciate the gesture.) :)
