Random stuff.

Re. Sponsored communities, this is what bradfitz had to say yesterday:

Love 'em, hate 'em, or really hate 'em..... sponsored communities aren't going away.

we're reading your comments, we're listening to what you have to say, and we're changing things based on your feedback.

So I guess that's sort of good news? If you want to keep up, go friend lj_biz 'cos they've been writing tons of posts. One that goes into fandom worries here and one about sponsored guidelines here. There's plenty more if you want to look them up!

In completely unrelated news The Cherub took her first steps yesterday! So cute! And getting so big...

She's walking already? Wow! You must be proud.

the_lj_herald is excellent - they check out all the LJ posts and notify members or friends of their comm about it all, with links - an excellent way to keep up with it all.

The main way that the LJ PtB are changing things in line with our feedback seems to be to say 'You don't want this? Tough, you are having it, but we will listen to what you say about how to make the thing you do not want look.' It is still a bit like 'When did you stop beating your wife.' Sigh.

But lovely news about the Cherub. Yay!

Thank you!

Congratulations to The Cherub on the walking, and good luck and much strength to you as she moves into toddlerhood!

Yay for walking!!! Of course, this means more running for you and it would help if you grew eyes in the back of your head. But yay all the same. The photos always make me smile, too.

Since I was away so long, what's with LJ selling out to The Man? A rhetorical question, but W. T. F. !!!
